Apprecia is delighted to feature some fresh faces in it's Photo Album. Barbi, Reah, Rebecca, Sonja and Susie join Chenese and Anne, modeling selections from the Apprecia Fine Jewelry collections.

MY NEW BOOK: JEWELRY SAVVY

The countdown is on until the release of my new book co-authored with Caroline Stanley, entitled Jewelry Savvy, scheduled for release in April, 2007! In Jewelry Savvy, you’ll learn how to select the jewelry most flattering to you, how to care for it, and even how to recycle it once you’re tired of it. We include helpful information about gemstones and metals, with a special section devoted to brides, and cover the whole range of price points from diamonds to costume jewelry. This is information that anyone – and everyone – who owns or loves jewelry should have as a resource in their personal library. The book makes a great Mother’s Day or graduation present. Please visit www.jewelrysavvybook.com to purchase a copy or to sign up for our newsletter, and watch your bookstores for Jewelry Savvy by Cynthia A. Sliwa and Caroline Stanley.

For a fun read, stop by “Jewels on Jewels,” the new blog that Caroline and I are writing for JCK Magazine. You’ll find our blog and lots of other great information about what’s going on in the jewelry industry at www.jckonline.com
