Visit our Newly Photographed Gems page to see the
latest arrivals!
We have
added a new page:
The
All That Glitters Diamond Search Engine
is here. Many have contacted us in the
past wanting to see us offer Diamonds at similarly low prices as our Colored
Gemstones. We have teamed up with our
associates to bring to the online public a Diamond Search Engine which will
allow one to search for the carat weight, color, make, ratios, certs and
everything else that one could want - including immediate pricing! The only limit one has is that we mandate
that Diamonds found have either a GIA or EGL (USA) Certificiate indicating
clarity, color, cut, carat weight,
proportions, etc. This has many
advantages. Visit the ATG Diamond Search
Engine for yourself and/or recommend it to those who are seeking Diamonds!
Tucson Time Again:
It's approaching that time of year ago. We will be attending the Tucson Show at the
end of January into early February - for about our 27th year. If you have anything on your Wish List and we
already don't have it currently in inventory, let us know what you seek. Note that we will not purchase items that do
not meet our criteria in size, cutting, clarity, color and price, and that we
would not be proud to have in our inventory.
All That Glitters In The News:
A
few more of our gemstones have been published and appear on line - The
International Gem Society! This includes Ammolite and Sphene and the
wonderful fact is that they represent their gemstone species! Below are
the two links where you can read more. Note that two of the Sphenes in the
article are available for sale, as well as the one Rare Ammolite with the Blue
Flash!
