Lesson 7 - Gemstone Jewelry
In jewelry, artists have the power to transform gems into expressions of personal feeling and identity. A fine sapphire, for example, is beautiful in its own right, yet set in an elegant platinum ring, it can become a symbol of love, success, or life’s enjoyment. The same is true of any gem, or any type of jewelry. This makes identifying customers’ messages and motives a crucial step in helping them select jewelry to own or to give. As part of the process, you also need to ensure that an item will suit the appearance, taste, and lifestyle of the person who will wear it.
