JTV's Did You Know...? TANZANITE
Did you know that as of October 2011, Jewelry Television has sold almost 4 million carats of exotic tanzanite? As a matter of fact, JTV is the world’s largest retailer of tanzanite! We are proud to bring our customer more tanzanite collections, colors and cuts, at the best possible values.
JTV's Did You Know...? SPINEL
Did you konw that red spinel is the favorite gem of JTV co-founder Jerry Sisk, and that the Black Prince "Ruby" in the Crown Jewels is actually a red spinel?
And JTV Senior Gem Buyer Jay Boyle is admittedly captivated by this gem of many colors. Spinel's brilliance, hardness, and wide range of spectacular colors makes it one of the most versatile of gemstones. In addition to beautiful rich reds, spinel can be found in a range of gorgeous pastel shades of pink and purple, as well as beautiful blue tones called cobalt spinel, but these are very, very rare.
Of particular interest in the gemstone market today is a vivid hot pink with a tinge of orange mined in Burma, and is considered one of the most spectacular gemstone colors seen in any species at all! And we have them here at JTV!
JTV's Did You Know...? CHROME DIOPSIDE
Did you know that in today’s market, large sizes of quality chrome diopside are in short supply? A major chrome dealer recently purchased 60 kilos of rough that yielded only about 3% in larger sizes of 10x8mm and up. And you can buy them now during JTV's Hong Kong Gem Event.
