LOL- believe me when I say that you wouldn't want any software that I would write!
1785  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / why no decent price app? on: June 23, 2011, 08:37:39 AM
Is there a reason that there is not yet a passable price app that displays several different exchange prices?  And one that doesn't crash when a particular exchange stops sending data?  When Mt Gox was alive I liked the Bitcoin Exchange watcher, but the pop-up window that tells you that there is no data is really annoying, and it would be a lot nicer if you had options to run it in the system tray, the toolbar, etc.

1789  Economy / Goods / beautiful rhodolite garnet from Madagascar on: June 20, 2011, 03:56:43 PM






Madagascar is producing amazing garnet lately but we never know how long a particular deposit will last.  Forget the nasty brown-Red hues of most garnet- this is beautiful red with just a tiny splash of orange to give it a strong, vivid punch of color.  

This stone is just under 2 3/4 carats- it weighs 2.73 cts.  The shape is perfect and the emerald cut is perfectly executed for lots of sparkle.  This is a fleeting opportunity to own a natural Madascan garnet that youwill treasure.  $28 per carat $24 per carat and $10 for trackable shipping.  Don't lose out- contact me now!

The amethyst trillian is SOLD

Thank you ColdHardMetal!!!  I appreciate it.  And yes, the star is really magnificent.  It looked too good to be true when I first saw it.  Usually when I take stones to GRS Swisslab I just drop them off at the window, and pick the report up when it is done.  This time Dr. Peretti came out to talk to me about the stone!  Smiley  It felt pretty cool.  I am no bigshot, so when someone of his caliber pays attention to the stone you bring in it boosts your ego a bit!

"You can touch gold and silver. But you can't touch a Bitcoin."

...and a numbered Swiss bank account can not be touched either.  So why bother with those?  LOL.

You also can not touch love, friendship, or knowledge- indeed those must be useless as well.

Thank you Sebdude!!  I think there are a lot of creative types who are attracted to bitcoin so I am not surprised to find someone else here who makes jewelry.  You are lucky to be able to study it locally!  What kind of jewelry did you make, and do you wear it?
1798  Economy / Goods / Re: amazing gemstones on: June 18, 2011, 07:41:52 AM
Of course you can ask me some questions here on the public forum, or send me a private message as well.  I am happy to hear from people who are interested in gemstones.  This work is not just my job, but my passion as well and I always like to communicate with people who share this love of natural precious stones!
1799  Economy / Goods / Re: amazing gemstones on: June 18, 2011, 05:35:46 AM
Here is an example of a ring we very recently made for a client.  She had been "window shopping" in the Cayman Islands and brought back an idea that really appealed to her.  We exchanged a few emails and traded some pictures gleaned from google image searches, and before you know it this ring was on her finger.  She is thrilled with the result and was even more shocked at the price. 

Some people are not aware that often custom jewelry costs LESS than comparable quality available "off the rack" in a jewelry store.  Think about this for a minute.  I do not have to finance my inventory of diamonds, gold, and labor to make a piece of heirloom quality jewelry.  When you select a stone that I am offering, I direct our artist to draw up the CAD image and then the model is made in wax, which is then cast in your choice of gold, platinum, white gold, palladium, or any other exotic precious metal.  Local artisans here in Bangkok finish the metal and set the stones and it is shipped directly to you via FedEx- fully insured. 

When you shop for jewelry at your local store are you getting exactly what you want, or are you settling for the quality and style that is available?  In this new technology age, there is absolutely no reason to settle.  Get the stones that you want and have a unique piece of jewelry manufactured specifically for you- on your terms.

Take a look at the piece of jewelry that was born of our client's trip to the Caymans, and think about letting us serve you in the same way- on your terms, with your desires and your tastes front and center.  That's what we do best.











 







Please feel free to add me as a friend on Facebook.  My name is "David Fortier" and I will be easy to spot since my avatar is this very ring that you see above!  Also if you have any questions please feel free to contact me at my regular e-mail:

Because my wife and I live most of the time in Bangkok we have access to some of the finest stones that the industry has to offer.  We consistently invest in gemstones that have widespread appeal to discerning clients and that are most likely to appreciate in value because of extreme rarity and superb beauty.  This five carat tsavorite garnet is an excellent example of just such a stone. 

While many gemstones are mined from different deposits all over the world, tsavorite garnet still has only a single source- in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro in the wild country of the Tsavo National Forest.  The East African nation of Kenya is home to all known tsavorite deposits and while all tsavorite is rare, it is much more rare in sizes over 3 carats.  At 5.10 carats, this stone is as suited to a museum as it is to the inventory of the most hard-to-please collector...or the most hard-to-impress spouse!  This tsavorite has the intense green color that is so highly coveted coupled with a ridiculous amount of sparkle and brilliance and is also a very clean gemstone.  It is supremely rare and you will never see such a fine gemstone in a local jewelry store as gems of this quality tend to go directly from wholesale markets in Asia to a collector's safe.

It has been said that "Tsavorite garnet is the color that emerald only wishes it could be."  The green of this magnificent example is other-worldly.



Independent 3rd party laboratory report included.  For a minimal fee, we will happily get a report from the laboratory of your choice.



























This very special tsavorite garnet heart is 5.10 carats and $2990 per carat.  Please inquire today if you need any additional information or if you have questions about insured shipping, independent laboratory reports, or if you want to know more about other gemstones that I am offering.  Few dealers in the colored gemstone trade offer the levels of quality and service that I offer to my clients.  Few dealers love gemstones as much as I do, and love serving people who love them.  Let's talk about that special stone for a special person.  We can take any stone that you select and using the latest computerized CAD/CAM technologies we can create the most exquisite piece of jewelry you have ever seen anywhere, at any price- but we make it affordable.
