• 2008 platinum prices reached peaks and valleys never imagined.  Throughout the year prices rose and set new record highs.  In contrast, as the year drew to a close an unprecedented decrease in the industrial platinum demand fell spiraling its price down to the lowest point in almost a decade!    All in stock platinum jewelry reflects this change in pricing.   Now, with this unique market, it is a wonderful time to build that dream custom platinum piece!

• Mozambique Paraiba Copper/Manganese Tourmaline continues to be the HOT stone with continued interest in the well-known neon blues and greens and new focus on the electric pinks, orange and lotus colored stones.

• Jewelry designs embrace the Art Deco Period and passion for the classics. Pave set diamonds, milgrain and bead edged gold, caviar beading and other Art Deco influenced intricate, highly skilled metal work will continue to dominate trends.  Two-tone jewelry will move from the modern and contemporary to the classical.  Rose gold appears to have made a limited entrance into the jewelry arena and perhaps will have an even quicker exit.
