Just about everyone, girl&lt;br /&gt;and guy, loves jewelry, and it's a romantic sentiment that will strike the&lt;br /&gt;right chord on virtually any day of the year. But it's important to know what&lt;br /&gt;your special interest likes and will happily wear. On Valentine's Day, girls&lt;br /&gt;especially love carefully thought-out symbolism. Think outside the "jewelry"&lt;br /&gt;box, such as having a custom-made heart pendant with a red ruby to prove your&lt;br /&gt;passion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip 2: Take two important web tutorials at http://www.gia.edu. GIA helps educate&lt;br /&gt;the public on how to purchase gems and jewelry and has created two online&lt;br /&gt;tutorials that teach the basics of diamonds and gemstones.&lt;br /&gt;Each site features an interactive guide -- Lucy in the "How to Buy a&lt;br /&gt;Diamond" tutorial, and Ruby Tuesday in "How to Buy a Gemstone in 7 Simplified&lt;br /&gt;Steps." Lucy and Ruby reveal some of the most important information needed to&lt;br /&gt;make the right buying decision, including the famous Four Cs of diamond&lt;br /&gt;value -- color, clarity, cut, and carat weight -- which GIA created in 1953.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip 3: Don't wing it. Go to a trusted source. You'll be an angel when&lt;br /&gt;you deliver a delicious box of chocolates, flowers, or football tickets, along&lt;br /&gt;with personally engraved jewelry this Valentine's Day. "But the important&lt;br /&gt;thing is to ask a jeweler or store if its associates have been professionally&lt;br /&gt;trained," says Brook Ellis, GIA's Education vice president.&lt;br /&gt;"Find a jeweler with Graduate Gemologist or Accredited Jewelry&lt;br /&gt;Professional credentials -- two of the jewelry industry's most well-known and&lt;br /&gt;respected titles. Choose your jeweler carefully -- he or she will be of&lt;br /&gt;immense help to you throughout your jewelry buying career."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip 4: Don't buy a diamond without a GIA report. It's the most trusted&lt;br /&gt;authentification in the worldwide jewelry industry, and you should always ask&lt;br /&gt;for one when you purchase a diamond. You can request a GIA report from your&lt;br /&gt;jeweler or send the diamond to the GIA Laboratory on your own. Visit&lt;br /&gt;http://www.gia.edu/gemtradelab/31505/services.cfm for more information about&lt;br /&gt;all of GIA's Laboratory services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip 5: Laser inscribe the diamond with a romantic message and get extra&lt;br /&gt;security. The GIA Laboratory will laser-inscribe any message on the gem's&lt;br /&gt;girdle (outside edge) for a romantic touch. The diamond's unique report&lt;br /&gt;number can even be inscribed and permanently recorded, which can later provide&lt;br /&gt;verification if the diamond is ever lost or stolen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With laboratories in &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;New York&lt;/st1:state&gt; and &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;California&lt;/st1:state&gt;, research facilities in&lt;br /&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Geneva&lt;/st1:city&gt;, &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Antwerp&lt;/st1:city&gt;, and &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Bangkok&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;, and 14 campuses worldwide, GIA is regarded as&lt;br /&gt;the world's foremost authority in gemology. For more information about&lt;br /&gt;the GIA Laboratory, Research, or Education, visit http://www.gia.edu, or call&lt;br /&gt;800-421-7250.&lt;br /&gt;An independent nonprofit organization, GIA is recognized as the world's&lt;br /&gt;foremost authority in gemology. Through research, education, gemological&lt;br /&gt;laboratory services, and instrument development, the Institute is dedicated to&lt;br /&gt;ensuring the public trust in gems and jewelry by upholding the highest&lt;br /&gt;standards of integrity, academics, science, and professionalism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SOURCE Gemological &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Institute&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;  of &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:placename&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18501883-113925822732903301?l=diamondaura.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://diamondaura.blogspot.com/feeds/113925822732903301/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=18501883&amp;postID=113925822732903301' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18501883/posts/default/113925822732903301'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18501883/posts/default/113925822732903301'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://diamondaura.blogspot.com/2006/02/purchasing-jewelry-for-valentines-day_06.html' title='Purchasing Jewelry for Valentine&apos;s Day - How to Get It Right'/><author><name>dionysus</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03676996309055835302</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18501883.post-113398583248289462</id><published>2005-12-07T11:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-07T12:03:52.493-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Diamond Aura Blog</title><content type='html'>The purpopse of this blogs is to allows the users to interact with DiamondAura management.
