\"A hammer cannot scratch a diamond, but it can brake it into a thousand pieces.\" How is that possible?
This is an important episode for you who listened last week! Now that you know about the gemstone hardness scale, you should also know the exceptions. How can a hard gemstone still be fragile?
In this episode you will learn why it is seldom recommended to set an emerald in a ring that should be worn every day - and why it is rarely a good idea to remove a gemstone from an old piece of jewelry.
I will also answer our first listener question!
Hope this episode will be of value to you.
And remember: you deserve fine jewelry.
