<p>I would like to tell everyone about my favorite new pair of fashion jewelry earrings that we just introduced.  I love, love, love <a href="http://www.shavonne.com/products/earrings/earrings-cz/page1/">ER1959</a>.  I love hoop earrings and these are great because they are the perfect size for hoop earrings.  They are not to big, not too small, with stones on the outside and the inside of the back hoop.  I like this look because the stones are seen all around the hoop.  These earrings are rhodium with clear stone accents.  You could wear these as dress earrings or to dress up an everyday outfit. I recommend everyone come and have a look at my favorite earrings.</p>
<p>Peace out!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GEMSTONES: precious, semi-precious, natural, pearls,  man made and &#8220;other&#8221; types of stones.  Diamonds, Cubic Zirconia, Swarovski Austrian Crystal, Crystal, rhinestones and glass are used by jewelry manufacturers throughout the world for both the retail and wholesale jewelry industry.  As we have previously spoken, &#8220;it is vitally important to know as much as possible about the jewelry manufacturer of whatever type jewelry you are considering buying.</p>
<p>The current retail and wholesale jewelry business is a multi billion dollar industry worldwide. And in the past several hundred years the industry is not totally honest as once was the case dating all the way back to 2,000BC.  Of all the precious stones (diamond, ruby, emerald sapphire, ad infinitum) clear, or white, diamonds are by far the most widely mined, cut, polished and prepared for the retail and wholesale jewelry industry.  They also are the stones of choice to fill the marketplace with fraud.  Diamonds are best known for being &#8220;under karated&#8221; &#8211; that is convincing the innocent, uninformed retail or wholesale buyer the diamond(s) is rated carries a much higher quality level as put forth by the world famous GIA &#8211; Gem Institute of America.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hiding&#8221; defects such as cracks and fissures by a process called &#8220;filling,&#8221; within the diamond is the second choice to perpetrate a costly fraud on the unsuspecting buyer. One could easily convey a great deal of vitally important information with several thousand words.  My most sincere advice to you is to utilize the web and educate yourself BEFORE ever shopping for a diamond.</p>
