It's that time again. Valentine's Day and the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show collided this year. The boss came back from the show with some sweet silver and gold heart jewelry. We are bursting the seams with hearts!
In the coming months we'll undoubtedly see all manner of Gem Show buys. Loose stones of various shapes and sizes will need to be set. Pearls will need to be strung. Those are the fun jobs. I like helping people turn their stones into works of wearable art.
The Gem Show always brings such color to town. I'm speaking figuratively. I saw an older couple walking down Stone the other day. They were so dressed up! She looked like Holly Golightly with her feathered (!) hat and heals. We usually see a number of people from other countries. So far, no one like that, sadly. The show runs through this Saturday, so there is still time.
