Shameless advertising....
for my friend Sam the Ring Man...
Looking to get some bling for that special someone, but a) your budget (who's not hurting right now?) or b) you, or that special someone, might be averse to such jewelry due to the environmental and political impact of mining?
Look no further!
Sam Abbay, jewelry maker and facilitator of New York Wedding Ring has the answer!
Check out his Eco Studs! They are stud earrings made of cultured (lab-grown) stones and recycled gold or palladium (a type of platinum). They really are lovely and are available in red ruby, pink ruby, blue sapphire, padparadscha sapphire (orange) and alexandrite. They are real stones, they just happened to be lab-grown rather than mined thus not harmful to the environment...and less expensive. Yes, here comes the budget part. Rather than you paying hundreds of dollars for mined sapphires and rubies, these studs are $150 a pair.
Stocking stuffer or the "big gift", first gems for a daughter, special earrings for mom, or the get-in-good-with-the-environmentally-conscious-girlfriend gift, or heck a HAPPY NEW YEAR WITH A NEW PRESIDENT gift, talk to Sam about picking up a pair of Eco Studs.
...and if things go well with that environmentally conscious girlfriend, you could also talk to him about making your engagement ring (also with recycled gold and cultured diamonds. (Yes, he has those, too! just not for earrings as yet)
In the meantime, I hope you all are having a lovely holiday season and aren't going too crazy just yet. :)
All right, back to making my Christmas playlist for my iPod...
Peace --Alex
