Add More Color to Your Life with These Spinels Can't Get Enough Of

Can’t Get Enough of August’s Newest Birthstone, Spinel It has been one year since AGTA partnered with JA (Jewelers of America) and announced that Spinel would become an official birthstone for the month of August! Here at AGTA, we can’t get enough Spinel, the newest additional birthstone! Below are some interesting facts about Spinel: Color: rich red, beautiful blue, orange, and pastel shades of pink and purple Hardness: 8 Locations: Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Tanzania, and Vietnam Interesting Fact: Ironically red Spinels, often referred to in ancient texts as balas Rubies, are actually more rare than Ruby but, unlike Ruby, they can sometimes be found in very large sizes. So the spectacular “Rubies” owned by Tamerlane, the Mongol conqueror, Henry VIII of England, and Peter the Great of Russia are all Spinels. Spinel has been a favorite gemstone at the AGTA Spectrum Awards™! Below are two winners from last year’s competition: AGTA Member, Niveet Nagpal of Omi Gems, Inc. won 1st AGTA Member, Caroline Chartouni of Caroline C won 3rd Place in the Classical category of the 2016 Summer AGTA Place in the Bridal Wear category of the 2016 Summer Spectrum Awards™ with this gorgeous 18K rose gold ring AGTA Spectrum Awards™ with these beautiful 18K white featuring a 4.01 ct. cushion-cut pink Spinel accented with gold earrings featuring red Spinels (2.21 ctw.) accented Spinel melee (.52 ctw.), Diamond melee (.82 ctw.) and a .01 with Diamonds (5.01 ctw.). ct.

Alex Meneses Gets Serious About Jewelry Origin of Pink Diamonds Firm Profile James Alger, James Alger Co
VOL 3 – 2016 member profile Varouj Tabakian, Jewellery by Varouj The AGTA Spectrum Awards™ Judging the Competition Kaleidoscope of Colors: 2016 Summer AGTA Spectrum™ Awards Funny Lady Alex Meneses Gets Serious About Jewelry Origin of Pink Diamonds firm profile James Alger, James Alger Co. Alex Meneses Sooner or later, the world’s most extraordinary gems will cross paths with RAHUL KADAKIA. Here, Christie’s Senior VP, Head of Jewelry Americas, shares priceless insight into the jewelry business and the value of an expert education. A master eye for gems … born or made? Coming from four generations of jewelers undoubtedly piqued my interest in this great business. But one needs to constantly train their eye by looking at gems – the more you learn, the better you will be at identifying and pricing gems, as well as being an effective salesperson and well-rounded businessman. Something most people don’t know about you. GIA is what brought me to Christie’s. After studying in Santa Monica, I attended a GIA Career Fair where I had my first interview with the company. Ok. Definitely a story there? I started work when I was 17 and five years into it, I thought I knew pretty much everything there was to know … until I enrolled at GIA. The Institute’s meticulous training and high standards exposed me to a whole new world of expertise. Ultimate sales edge … emotion or expertise? Jewelry is an emotional shopping experience, but expertise plays a decisive role. It’s wonderful to show people a brilliant diamond, but it means more when you can follow up with a skillful explanation of the 4Cs exemplified in that particular gem.
