        Next Class:
        Sunday, October 21, 2007
        1 – 3 pm at the Spokane Bead Frenzy (view pictures here)

With Rings & Things owner Russ Nobbs

At Rings & Things, we try to honestly represent our products. It's not always easy to learn what imitations, enhancements and misnamed stones are on the market. Let Russ help you wade through the mystery and jargon of gemstones!

In this informal discussion on gemstone enhancement and identification, Russ will share knowledge from his more than 30 years in the industry. Learn some of the ways you can tell if a stone is "real." Plus, bring stones you're curious about, and any questions you may have. Or, just bring your ears and eyes to experience this lively talk complete with physical samples of un-enhanced, enhanced and manmade gemstones.
