James B. and all !

    Some time ago I had a client ask me to "Rhodium" plate yellow gold.
    I told him that it would eventually wear off under 'normal' daily use
    and the colouring would be a ' bit off '! He said his own client just
    wanted the look of white gold.....then my client criticised my
    "professional independent, sub-contractors" plating results. I
    refused to do it myself ! I knew the results. 

    I also told him that the final results would not appear as if it WAS
    white gold to start with. An old adage "The customer is always
    right, no matter how wrong they are!"...duh!..Gerry!
