I''m still a complete newbie here, so thanks for putting up with me!
My mother''s 50th (she''d probably kill me if she knew I told you that
) is coming up in the next few months and I want to do something special for her. She''s a woman who almost never wears jewlery and would never buy herself something expensive. Both she and my father wear simple wedding bands. But last year I caught her lusting after my aunt''s very simple sapphire necklace. It''s a string of faceted sapphire beads, not rondelles, hers are diamond shaped (?), or maybe better described as spindle shaped? very small, MAYBE 3mm across. Elegant and understated, just like my mother.
So, here''s my problem.... I don''t know where I would find something like this! I would be perfectly happy to buy either a prefabricated necklace or to buy the sapphires unstrung and commission a jewler (or do it myself it''s so simple really), but I don''t know the first thing about where to even LOOK for something like this. I hate to walk into a B&M without some sort of knowledge backing... any ideas? Thanks for all the help!
