The jewels that I possess are jewels that my mother and I have collected since before I was born. My mother became a jeweler in the 1980's when the jewelery business was bangin' and the value of gold was quite high. My mother and father were both jewelers. My father owned a small jewelery shop in Los Angeles, California while working at the Bel-Air Hotel in Beverly Hills. He made a lot of connecti
ons and got a lot of actors and actresses to buy jewelry from his store. My mother was born in Brazil so they traveled there to get many fine Gems like amethyst, tourmaline, citrine, blue topaz, aquamarine, emeralds, rubies, alexandrites, and diamonds from places like Minas Gerais and so on. They've been in the business since 1947 and my parents have gone to jewelry show conventions all over in the United States (we've visited Chicago, Detroit, North Carolina, Arizona, California, Nevada, Washington, New York, Cincinnati, Texas, and others) to sell jewelery. We like sophisticated pieces that are well to wear to special events. I personally have traveled to Europe for a couple of years and lived in France for a few in my young adulthood and have developed my own style in preference for high priced bijoux inspired by castles and upper class tastes. Brands I like for jewelry and clothing are Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Bvlgari, Rolex, and Versace. If you have any questions in regards to jewelery you're welcome to ask me if you'd like.
