When I went to Shanghai, two fresh water pearls were presented. There a staff put them out from live shellfish.

I intended to make a pendant top at first but found the parts of earrings at handicrafts corner. And I bought them to set up.　

I put on those and went out today. Pearls match the Japanese skin tone well. Perhaps they made me look 10 years younger. Hahaha, laugh it off as a joke! Anyway I think I made a neat job of it.

I bought a diamond-studded emerald ring, I have already had expensive one though.

I got it on the way through a jeweler's shop. I think I am selective when it comes to shopping for jewels. So it was good deel.

This is a ruby ring platinum setting with diamonds which I bought when I gained reemployment.

I used to go out in a suit or a dress every day. But I live by wearing pants and a T-shirt of the cotton now.

Therefore I do not have any opportunities to wear this. But I studied what was a good jewel.

Now, if I had the same amount of money, I would buy more beautiful ruby.  However, there is not the chance to wear it.　　This ring has too many diamonds for a housewife like me.

Going to Australia for a sightseeing tour with my friend 3 years ago, I bought this.

I had thought that opal was a cheaper jewel till I went there. As I went round the many jeweler's shops, I was able to know which is a real opal.

Of course the real one is expensive, but I didn't have enough money as usual, that was a real problem. 

Therefore I told my budget to the salesclerk of the shop. I spent long time for shopping, and finally I got the ring at an about half price. Of course it's in my budget.

What a good wife!  I do not waste my husband's money.

【Czech Garnet】

When I went to Czech in a few years ago, I bought it. To tell the truth, I am not interested in such a semiprecious stone very much. But I had to buy it since I went.

It is not so expensive because it's only a souvenir for me. When I go to a market for shopping, I may wear it several times a year.

I seem to be  "A rich woman of leisure",  someone said to me so. If I had enough money, I could buy more expensive one.

By the way, the chief ingredient of the garnet seems to be iron, aluminum, and silicon oxide becoming the cause of the glass. Iron or aluminum may make color. From it, it is made of almost glass.

Fe²⁺₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃       Mg₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃    Mn₃Al₂(SiO₄)_{3.........etc}
