There are a number of transitions that characterize a life and hopefully most will be a cause for celebration.
Graduation, marriage and new additions to the family are common milestones, though certainly not the only
ones worth celebrating. Citrine and green aventurine are gemstones associated with prosperity and good fortune, so
it is fitting to offer selections with these stones for the new graduate. A variety of designs are presented for
wedding finery, from simple pearls to layers of color. Jewelry for new additions in the form of babies is
impractical but sentimental; it's hard to resist commemorating such a special event even if jewelry near babies
isn't a good idea.
