Gems Of Wisdom💎

T oday is my nanny's first death anniversary. She died exactly one year ago today and you can read about it  here! We don't call her nanny but we call her auntie or her nickname Auntie Peling. She's been with our family for over half a century & worked all her life with us and one of the very few people who genuinely care about us and treated us as a family and our feelings towards her is mutual. She's so special to me that I named a 6.90 carats flawless Santa Maria aquamarine after her! I have a beautiful plan about this I am probably going to set in a ring using gold from her hometown which a small scale goldmining is one of the livelihood of the town. My nanny also live in a town with beautiful white sand beaches though it is polluted now because of the siltation and the pollution that came from a big mine in the town but when it was clean and untamed way back in 1999 or so the waters reminds me of this aquamarine gem which is also my n

I 've always known that I am different than most people. They say it is our choices that tells us who we are far more than our abilities so I think I am special & unfortunately I live in a place where everything I do seems to be out of the ordinary to most people like in my family I will be the last to get out of the beach because I'd like to see the sunset before I leave🌅& I'll be the one who stays late at night till the wee hours of morning just to look up to the stars✨🌠& they don't understand that. From my hobbies, to the music I play and habits to my obssesion in rescuing too many stray pets that I could no longer afford to feed & to most people my doings feels creepy, weird and freaky but to the rest of the world & beyond I believe they see me as someone special. Which is why I am drawn to unique special things and it's no wonder that my favorite gems to collect are natural color diamonds because they are the perfect representatio

1 06 years ago 'The Ship Of Dreams' The TITANIC sanked into the bottom of the abyss killing thousands of people in one night!🌊🚢💙 In 1998 the world's heart hurt💔when the int'l blockbuster movie stayed in moviehouses for months with theme song 'My Heart Will Go On' sang by Celine Dion stayed No.1 in various music charts worldwide! No other movie had made a deep impact into the hearts of people or moviegoers in history and in fact if you've been following my blog I had mentioned several times it is the TITANIC that influenced and changed my life because it made me a gem nut all because I was extremely fascinated by the fictional 'Heart Of The Ocean Necklace' featuring a fictional 65 carats deep blue diamond surrounded by white diamonds. That necklace became an int'l sensation that the jeweler who made the movie necklace prop decided to make a real replica and of course because large blue diamonds are extremely rare they used a Ceylo

T he most popular birthstones is the diamond and April born babies are lucky to have the most beautiful, most valuable & rarest gem which is the diamond. Diamond is the hardest substance on Earth but only moderately tough and only a diamond can cut a diamond but may shatter upon impact. The most popular diamonds are the white diamonds which are mostly slightly tinted brown and yellow and absolutely colorless diamonds are very rare.  Diamonds with natural colors except brown are extremely rare like opalescent white, grey, black highly saturated yellows, pink, blue, green, purple, red, violet & orange! However brown diamonds gets more rare & valuable if it have a rare overtone or tint such as yellowish brown, yellow brown, pinkish brown, pink brown, orangy brown, orange brown, reddish brown & red brown! The most expensive natural color diamond ever sold is a blue diamond that sells for $4 million dollars per carat and blue diamond is not even the rares

T he 2nd bling bling purchased for 2018! I like buying jewelry when I'm depressed coz they're like little sunshine in my pocket that will cheer me up and brighten my day.🌻🌞🌈 Bling Advice: The best time to wear red is noon coz it is the time that the color red looks their best and the complimentary color of deep red is deep green that's why the deep ruby red jewel here looks stunning here around 11:25 AM in deep green grass & my deep green suede shoes.❤💚 I believe in color theraphy. Red makes me feel sensual, passionate and sexy. Yellow is obviously a happy and sunny color. This ring actually reminds me of a fancy vivid yellow diamond from a November 2010 Sotheby's catalogue. For me when a diamond gets vivid yellow color they should be mounted in white metals like white gold, palladium or platinum coz the color is already perfect. Setting them in yellow gold will only enhance the color making it look a deep yellow. Now this is truly w
