KNOWLEDGE AS A GEMMOLOGIST

Gemmology is such a huge and fascinating subject. It took me 3 years to qualify as an FGA (Fellow of the Gemmological Association) passing in 1993. My young son loved testing me from my flash cards when we were on long car trips! This qualification is the highest to achieve in Great Britain…

ABOUT THE GEMSTONES

The beads are sourced from reliable online wholesale companies and gemstone dealers, many of whom I know from my contacts in the jewellery trade. The beads are already polished, shaped, drilled and sold in 16” lengths…

MY STORY

As a qualified gemmologist my passion for gemstones inspired me to make my own range of bead jewellery. I love the variety of colours and shapes.

My path to taking this qualification was through working in a fabulous, family run, very high quality, antique jewellery shop in Reigate, Surrey…

" I was surprised by my boyfriend on my birthday when he gifted me this beautiful pearl bracelet. I was already impressed by it's picture on the website, but in person, it's even more stunning. I really feel that it is a high-quality piece of jewellery, and I love it. Thank you so much, Rona ❤️"
