Russian Chrome Diopside - What Is It? Where Does It Come From?

Published: 01-22-2012 06:33pm
Posted In: Gemstone Jargon
What is this green gemstone that everyone is calling "Russian Chrome Diopside"! Why are so many people trying to purchase it and for what reason? I'm going to try and explain this wonderful green gem.Then, in 1988, rumors of a momentous new green gem from Russia started circulating in the trade. Dealers who saw this material when it first surfaced in Europe raved about the resemblance of its color to that of tsavorite and chrome tourmaline and raved as much about its price: only a fraction of these gems. After the wall fell and dealers began exploring the new possibilities for marketing Russian gems, the rush was on. Since then, Chrome... » Read More

MaggieMays Fine Jewelry Honoring ArtFire Artisan's and Showing Their "Piece's of Art"

Published: 01-19-2012 10:41pm
MaggieMays newest blog explains that whatever a artisan design's; whether it be sewing, crocheting, photography, or jewelry making; all of it is considered a "A Piece of Art". We need to let our customer's know what it take's into the designing of one item. Pattern's have to be made, hours of workmanship, designing, creativity, and when completed it isn't the end. Picture taking needs to be done, editing, uploading the picture's, and most of all writing a description that is eye catching to the customer.http://www.artfire.com/modules.php?name=collections&op=details&cid=32641#widgetcont p{ padding:0; margin:0; } .title_brown, .title_brown a, .title... » Read More

With the holiday's coming to a end were all busy getting our home's back in order, writing thank you's and thinking of our loved one's that couldn't be with us to celebrate.MaggieMays Fine Jewelry thought about how lonely our soldier's must have felt not having their loved one's with them. Here's is a Soldier's Story.Twas the night before Christmas, he lived all alone, in a one bedroom house made of plaster and stone. I had come down the chimney with presents to give, and to see just who in this home did live. I looked all about, a strange sight, I did see, no tinsel, no presents, not even a tree.No stocking by mantle, just boots filled with sand,... » Read More

"I cannot say enough good things about Marge, the lovely lady who sold me this beautiful emerald. She is one of the nicest people I have ever met. She made sure I knew what I was getting and went out of her way to get me this stunning emerald pendant! The color is just beautiful and I could not be happier! Just perfect! A very professional seller who knows what she's talking about-I encourage you to check out her shop. Many thanks Marge!!!"

"Amazing artist..perfect order, fast shipping and extremely pleasant to work with. Highly recommended artist."

"Shopping at MaggieMays was a great experience! Marge is very knowledgeable and answered my emails and any questions quickly and professionally. The emerald pendant is just beautiful and MaggieMays gets a perfect score from me! I highly recommended MaggieMays if you are shopping for a beautiful, fine quality piece of jewelry. And thank you for the free shipping special-what a nice surprise!"

The lovely Chrome Diopside ring (1 stone + 4 around it) plus the Ruby pendant, plus the re-mounted Lapis Lazuli in the fine sterling silver mount, all received on time and all excellent. Thank you, Marge

Dear Marge, Splendid to talk with you and Don. I truly appreciate the care and detail with which we can make our informed decisions.

Thank You, The necklace arrived promptly and was well packed. I gave the necklace to my daughter for her 22nd birthday. She loves the necklace and the chain as well. Also, she has sent me several links to your website for future gifts.

Orange is one of my most favorite colors lately and this Agate Citrine Quartz cuff bracelet is outstanding. Beautiful piece.

Your jewelry is beautiful!

MaggieMays Thank You for such a lovely and beautiful Sri Lanka Sapphire Necklace; your quality, expertise and knowledge certainly shows in your design's

Margaret, Did receive the ring. I Love it! The color is beautiful. Been wearing it since I received it. Thanks for quick service. So appreciated!

Unclassified! Received the necklace. Thank You so much.

2013 Comments: I ordered this beautiful Mandiore Ametrine White Topaz Ring. From the minute I ordered, I was receiving communication from MaggieMays about when it would be shipping, how to care for it properly, and when it was shipped. I received it within a few days of order and it is stunning; just a beautiful piece. I have several pieces of gemstone jewelry, but have never been given tips on how to care for it. The service was great and I have a ring that I will treasure. I love it!

Hi Marge, I received the ruby earrings and they are gorgeous! Thank You for the tips on taking care of the earrings.

"I recently bought a beautiful multi gem silver necklace from MaggieMays and couldn't be happier with the necklace or the service. I was contacted by Marge Pierson direct from MaggieMays and we had a couple of lovely email chats about the necklace and the method of shipment, as I live in Australia. Marge went to the trouble of exploring all the shipping options and kept me informed all the way. She posted me the necklace and it arrived about a week later, intact and well packaged. The necklace is absolutely beautiful and I have had so many comments about it whenever I wear it! I would definitely shop at this site again."

Customer commented: The Amethyst bracelet you sent looked amazing on her wrist! She really enjoys her new piece. The communication throughout this whole transaction was great! The packaging was very good and allowed her new bracelet to arrive unharmed and looking exquisite. I would definitely shop with you again and have told a few friends about my experience. In good regards, Thomas

Beautiful as are all of your wonderful pieces, Margaret. I especially like the delicate pink coloring of this rubellite tourmaline earring set. :-)

Comments received on Fluorite and Blue Topaz Necklace: Judith - That is absolutely out of this world beautiful! Pam - So pretty!! Dana - very pretty!! Charlene - Knocked my socks off and I pinned it too :) Sonja - Very Pretty! Pam - So Pretty! Dianes Dangles - Blue Fluorite is so pretty! Love this necklace; Karen - This is such a beautiful necklace Margaret, as all your pieces.

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Marge at MaggieMays. She responded to my questions promptly regarding a moonstone pendant and earring set. The jewelry is stunning and Marge went "above and beyond" answering my many questions about the stones and how to care for my new jewelry. I've completed many transactions on the web, and this was by far one of the most pleasant. ~ Carol K, San Diego,

Hi Marge, Thanks so much for your "above and beyond" assistance with this transaction. I'm too old to say this phrase, but that won't stop me, you ROCK! That's a good thing!

Just received your package. The set is gorgeous, completely different from my original moonstone from the 1980's. Maybe because mine isn't faceted? Or is this set moonstone/topaz? Doesn't matter. I just love It. Very sparkly!! Thank you so very much for your above-and-beyond communication on this transaction. You are a true asset to buyers.

"David Salerno here: i think you have some beautiful jewelry designs! I just followed you on Twitter so I can tweet your wonderful merchandise and I wish you great success and prosperity in the future!"

Absolutely beautiful creations Marge! Very nice looking Artfire shop too!

"Marge, thank you for your continuous communication, distinct and informative information about fresh water pearls. I've been looking for just the right soft color of pink pearls for years and MaggieMays has made my dream come true. You have exquisite and beautiful fine jewelry that is nothing less than high quality. Thanks for sending on how to care for my pearls. I will definitely let my friends know about MaggieMays jewelry and be shopping with you again."—Elizabeth
