Yeah, we've (both) got mixed emotions re: pricing and ethics of diamonds. That's why Apollo is so compelling. I spoke with their only jeweler yesterday and apparently it is a small family-owned company who doesn't quite know business... just how to make diamonds. Can I get a licensing contract?

They aren't publicly traded, or I'd have moved almost everything I have over there. They will explode, as their diamonds will revolutionize technology- $5/carat! So, I'd get in quick- Of course, DeBeers will probably find a way to undermine the entire thing. Yuck.

I'm really only looking for a modest piece- It's going to be bezel set in a one-of-a-kind setting designed by us- round or cushion will work- 1ct-ish, I or better, SI2 or better- nothing too fancy. No sense putting a mortgage on the hand of a social worker! (her words, not mine!)

Wish there was a nice family stone, but they had amythist!
