Metier on Gem Gossip jewelry blog!

We have been big fans of the jewelry blog, Gem Gossip, for quite a while, following sweet southern Danielle's love for antique jewelry and her quest to become a certified gemologist! One of our favorite parts of the blog is a feature called Show Me Your Rings!Show Me Your Rings," where readers send in photos of their ring collections, hands decked out in all kinds of bands from tiny heirlooms to enormous costume rocks!

We sent her a few images of some of our rings that she just posted. Enjoy the sparkle!
