December 30th, 2011

As I sit here in the warm studio, I am happy to know that I was able to bring joy to many ladies and pearl wearing gentlemen this Holiday Season. Wow .. we were busy around here! With four shows in four weeks leading up to Christmas, I was a pearl whirlwind all over California, meeting pearl lovers, designers, friends and family… and then came the last minute online shoppers. So now the dust has settled and we are enjoying the peace and quiet here.. designing new pieces and anxiously awaiting the fresh harvest of Japan Kasumi pearls set to arrive in the middle of January 2012.

TUCSON 2012 – GJX BOOTH #107 – JAN. 31st – FEB. 5th 2012

December 28th, 2011

As the year winds down, and leaves rustle in chilly winds… we start to look forward to our biggest show of the year. The annual Tucson Gem and Mineral show.. a cornucopia of all things gemological and mineral is by far my favorite show. Tens of thousands of buyers and dealers descend upon an otherwise sleepy sprawling town in the desert to soak up some sun and trade baubles (and sometimes full dinosaur skeletons). There are dozens and dozens of shows through out the city, each with their own focus and ambiance. From parking lots to convention centers and massive tents, the city is a buzz with rock hounds, miners, designers, jewelers, and collectors.

AS ALWAYS …. KOJIMA COMPANY AND PACIFIC PEARLS WILL BE EXHIBITING IN BOOTH # 107 AT THE

GEM AND JEWELRY EXCHANGE (GJX) Show Address: 198 S. Granada Ave., Tucson AZ 85701 (across the street from the AGTA show)
