WELCOME TO THE NEXT COURSE IN OUR HOLIDAY PROGRESSIVE DINNER PARTY.
Don’t worry if you missed the hors’ d oeurves, appetizers or if you don’t have a ‘stud’ on your arm or in your ear. Just page down to previous posts to catch up. It’s nearly Thanksgiving! Time to loosen the buckle one notch (or two) and consider something filling. Finer jewelry is setting records at auction. Why? Savvy buyers know that global currencies are losing their luster. Gold, diamonds, fine signed jewelry: consider decorating your Sweetheart (or yourself) with some sparkling hard assets this Holiday.

Ruby! Ruby! Ruby!
Did you know our Secretary of State is headed to Burma soon? U.S. diplomatic ties –and our gem trade–with this totalitarian regime were severed years ago, resulting in an embargo on Burmese Rubies. This vintage bracelet, pre-embargo, is crafted in 18k. white gold. Over twenty-five carats of UNHEATED GENUINE BURMESE RUBIES. This signed bracelet sings in candlelight and would easily sell at auction for much more. Layer with a diamond bracelet, maybe a Yogo bracelet too. Big Sky price: $18,970.
