    Jewellery Quality

    Yesterday I took some unwanted clothes to my local charity shop. Whilst I was there I noticed a pair of beautiful Ethiopian opal earrings or perhaps I should say, one was beautiful, the other, wasn't. Thinking it was a trick of the light, I asked to see them. The very helpful lady told me, quite...

    Michele Hope's mum

    Before I say more, I must tell you that personally, in general, I'm not keen on this range and Michele's own style is not to my taste. However, having just seen her mother modeling I have to credit both women with style.

    Loose stone!!!!!?

    I can't believe that the blonde girl with the loud voice has just said that the stone in her engagement ring is loose!!!! Remind me never to shop where she does. She can't have had it much more than 6 months. My wedding ring is Georgian and roughly 200years old. As yet, the stones, 3 claw set...

    TSVs and 3 course speci

    Have just decided that splashing out on cosmetic and skincare TSVs is a bit like ordering a "Three course Special" in a restaurant and have come to the conclusion that as I would rather eat one course of something I really like it makes no sense to order more, thus benefitting both purse and hips.

    Cats' Eye Zultanite

    Please could somebody with a brain explain why Don Kogan is allowing stones (of which there are apparently only 500 in existence, that he has sold to a collector and are so RARE, RARE, RARE that they will never be heard of again) to be auctioned off at less than the collector is paying. He also...

    Kaftans???

    Sheila has just said that there are many occasions when one can wear a kaftan. Sadly, she did not specify olthough the presenter has just mentioned cruises. I have NEVER seen a kaftan taking its holiday on a cruise, come to think of it. I have NEVER seen a kaftan on holiday ANYWHERE. Does this...

    Appropriate sizes

    Have just watched the re run of Anthony Fashion Designs. Can anybody please tell mr why, why why why WHY must they put a girl with more curves in a top at least two sizes too small. The slender dark haired girl displayed a teeshirt which flowed whilst the more voluptous blond wore one which...

    Getting the carat weights right

    Why is it that when the information on screen gives the combined carat weight of coloured gem and diamond, the breakdown of the item running across the bottom of the screen frequently gives a much lower diamond weight, thus making the total carat weight much less. As it is, they deserve a prize...

    Irritating pronunciation

    We don't call diamonds dee-amonds, so why must that woman call diopside dee-opside?

    Annalee & Hope

    Don't know what the fabrics are like but as an apple shape I feel excited for the first time in ages about QVC fashion. Most of the tops cover everything I need to hide.

    Closeup shots

    Just listening to the lovely Chloe telling us how the closeup shots enable us to see the quality of the stones used by TJC. The cynic in me says it also serves to make us believe that the piece is much larger and more opulent than it actually is. Also, whilst the item being shown may be of...

    Rubies

    Could anybody out there please explain to me why the quality of TJCs rubies is only good enough to set in 9ct gold or overlaid silver. Are there no good rubies to be had or is it that TJC can't get their hand on them?

    stretching the limits

    Am I the only one to notice that the Kim & Co items modeled by the less curvey girls appear to have masses of give but on Joy they look as if they have been painted on. Okay, they can squeeze the poor girl into an XL, I would like to see her in 2 or 3 XL. Painted on clothes are best left to...

    noble red spinel

    Could somebody with more knowledge than I, please explain to me why the lovely John is wittering on about this RARE, RARE, RARE gem which weighs in at an enormous "just over a carat" and is saying that it's rarer than rubies. I would like to know to which ruby is he referring, I didn't think...

    Strange coincidence

    Does anybody else find it strange that however rare rare rare the gem being featured,only just that morning JL has discovered an article on it in one of the glossies and just the day before one of the camara crew/producers/cleaners had gone into a "Highstreet" jeweller to ask about this gem only...

    Earring clarification

    Have just heard SL say that 30pt diamonds are not tiny stones-quite correct! however, I imagine great disappointment will abound when it is discovered that this magic number must be divided by two.....or am I being overly pedantic!!!!!? Best wishes from Springflower.

    Certified as what?

    Could somebody with more knowledge than I please explain how a certified stone is being sold as G to H. Why are they not certain how to classify it? Are they playing safe or is it that the difference between the two grades is so indiscernable that it makes no difference to the price? Probably...

    Nice nails

    Am struck by how lovely Sarah Lou's nails look. Just goes to show that false nails don't need to look like tarty talons. IMO colourless or pale coloured nails work better with all the different coloured gemstones - are less distracting,

    Titanic tanzanite tales

    I do wish the management at TJC would check their facts before allowing their presenters to make wild, sweeping statements which can be checked for authenticity. Thus far, on four different occasions we have heard that the gem in the film "Titanic",known as "The heart of the ocean" was actually...
