The internet is a great tool, and allows us to accomplish certain goals in ways that were simply not possible before. All of us here at Ganoksin are working hard to build a strong pool of information, freely accessible, for the benefit of the trade and the general public, promote jewelry art, community, and critical thought in a world that doesn't always seem to make sense.

For almost 14 years we have operated this site under the quiet terms of a contributionware site. It continues to be our goal to raise the quality of material available on The Ganoksin website and to remain an independent site that serves the community.

It has been by the generosity of our members we have not only been able to do that, but have become known net wide as an authoritative source on Gem and Jewelry matters.

As with any top site that achieves the success on the order that we have, expenses also grow. Dozens of gigabytes of bandwidth per day, multiple servers, legal and business expenses have all grown dramatically in the last year to account for our (just plain) awesome growth.

Ganoksin is run by a group of people who believe in and love what they're doing. If you enjoy our efforts, then please feel free to show your support!
