Dear all,

    I'd like to announce the launch of JPM - the International Jewellery
    and Precious Metal  Information Network. 

    In brief JPM is a new web and email based resource and
    communications network for all those with a professional interest in
    jewellery including jewellery history and appraisals/valuations. Its
    small and new, but will grow. 

    Have a look at www.jpm-international.com for details. 

    It is not - I repeat not - in competition with Orchid-Ganoksin which
    provides an amazing and unmatchable resource for working jewellers,
    designers etc. JPM is aimed more at the academic aspects - such as
    the history of jewellery, historical development of technology and
    materials, gemmology, appraisal, authenticity, conservation etc. Of
    course there will be some overlaps with Ganoksin, but I am sure the
    occasional duplicate posting won't be a problem. 

    Also JPM does not conflict with existing jewellery trade
    organisations, but supplements them its international scope and by
    including jewellery historians, auctioneers and appraisers/valuers. 

    Anyone has access to the web pages, but you must register as a
    member of JPM to use the email information exchange and, in the
    future, to download some of the articles and educational material. 

    JPM is still being developed so please bear with us - and if this
    posting results in a wave of replies, be patient.  With use JPM can
    grow to become a truly international resource and communications
    channel. 

    Please pass on this information to your jewellery industry
    colleagues. 

    AND - reply to me info AT jpm-internationl.com  - not the full orchid
    list :-)
