    I got a real chuckle out of your post about semi-precious gems.? I
    have been making gemstone jewelry for a number of years.?Everytime
    my mother-in-law sees a piece she says "You know I see people
    wearing that crap all the time."? I made a london blue & yellow
    topaz with pink sapphires necklace to wear to a reunion.? It has an
    18K gold and diamond clasp.?It is one of my favorite pieces.?The
    reunion was in our hometown and we stayed with my mother-in-law for
    the weekend.? When I put the necklace on to wear it out that
    evening, she said "You know that crap you wear is really popular."?
    I've given up on trying to educate her on colored stones.? To her,
    if it isn't a tiffany set diamond it isn't jewelry.? 

    Of, BTW, she particularly likes the jewelry counter at JC Penney.?
    Go figure!!!
