Glitter, Sparkle, Danger – International Gem Trade Has Many Facets

By Sonja Pace

The global trade in precious stones is a multi-billion dollar business. It touches the lives of people in the mines of South Africa, stone cutters of India, and countless others around the world. These precious gems adorn, kings, queens, movie stars and millionaires, and serve as that special gift for a birthday or a young bride. The gem trade – a business that begins in the bowels of the earth and ends up in the glittering shops of Hollywood’s Rodeo Drive or New York’s Fifth Avenue – brings joy, wealth and glory to some, badly needed income to others and prolonged war and devastation to still more. VOA’s Sonja Pace has this look at the gem trade, and the lives it touches. (Part 1 of 5) Read more about Glitter, Sparkle, Danger – International Gem Trade Has Many Facets

Fine jewelry —all fun and playful

By Apples Aberin Sadhwani
Philippine Daily Inquirer

MANILA, Philippines—Precious yet playful best describes Tamara Comolli’s fine jewelry pieces. The designer, who was in Manila recently, presented her new collection of multi-colored stones accented with witty, surprising little details.

A seriously gorgeous 17-karat peach sapphire ring with one-karat diamonds on each side, for example, reveals an unexpected cut out of the company logo, a water drop (not a tear drop, mind you) on the bottom side of the ring. A bangle that seems commonplace is made special by the choice of stones and the fact that the stones move from side to side as the wearer moves. An ordinary necklace is also made unique with diamonds on one side and sapphires on the other. Read more about Fine jewelry —all fun and playful

Jewels return to runway at Milan Fashion Week

By DANIELA PETROFF
MILAN, Italy (AP) — Baubles and bangles have returned to the Milan runway after several seasons locked tightly in the jewelry box. Even at Jil Sander, the most minimalist of labels, diamond studded earrings sparkled from the models’ pierced ears.

In general the jewelry is down to earth, with the novelty of pieces of wood used to fashion necklaces and bracelets. Ethnic jewelry of the silver-and-stones kind is also popular. Earrings tend to be large and dangling, like the ones at Marni made out of heavy stone and crystal appliques. Read more about Jewels return to runway at Milan Fashion Week
