GIRL SCOUT PRESS RELEASE 

      On March 10, 2008 Girl Scout Troop 008 visited Dana’s Fine Jewelry in Downtown Newton to earn their Jewelry Badge. Starting off in the front of the store learning about different gemstones. Dana showed each girl there birthstone and gave them facts about the stones. The Girl Scouts learned about the different metals such as gold and the different karats, sterling silver and stainless steel. For many of the girls this was there first experience with different types of stones and metals.

After learning what goes on in the front of the store the girls were able to go behind the scenes to see where we repair jewelry and where we engrave items. First we showed the girls how to solder charms and o-rings. They were really excited to see the flame turn green when you mixed the flame with the chemicals. After soldering we moved onto engraving. Showing the girls how to set up the letters and the size according to piece being engraved. Then each girl was able to engrave a letter on a plaque that had there troop number on it to keep.

The girls were so good and interested in learning about jewelry but then what girl isn’t. Before they left they made their own bracelet to keep with beads they threaded on there themselves. Dana enjoys helping the Girl Scouts and teaching about jewelry because she says she can still remember when her grandfather helped her and her troop get their Jewelry Badge. She hopes she can continue to help and teach others about her passion.

This was our 2 Girl Scout Troop that has come in the past year! Dana likes to give back to the community and this is one way she can. Dana’s grandfather did this when he had the store and Dana said she can still remember when she was in Girl Scouts and coming to the Jewelry Store to learn.

YOU THINK DIAMONS ARE EXPENSIVE

So you think Diamonds are Expensive??

Think about it, a thousand piles of diamonds, each pile with a thousand
diamonds. In that pile only one will be a one-carat diamond, and none will
be a two-carat diamond. We need five times that many to find a two-carat
diamond.

Did you know, as much as 250 tons of earth's crust must be removed to find a
one-carat diamond. Also people who cut diamonds must serve as apprentices
for 10 years before they are even allowed to touch a one-carat diamond.

That is why it is so important to have your diamonds checked and cleaned
regularly.

Bring your diamonds into Dana's Fine Jewelry in Downtown Newton for us
to clean and inspect your diamonds and gems for FREE!!

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A DIAMOND

If you’re the kind of person who demands quality then let the four C’s be your guide!

When looking to buy a diamond there are four things to consider. Those four things are known as the four C’s - Carat, Cut, Color, and Clarity.

A carat is the weight of the stone. For example a .50 point diamond would be a half carat and a 1.00 point diamond would be a whole carat. The heavier a diamond the more valuable it is. But bigger isn’t always better. Quality is found in diamonds of all sizes.

The cut is the angles and proportions of a diamond. Classified as the shape of the diamond as well. A diamond that is cut to correct proportions will radiate fire and brilliance. If a diamond is cut to shallow or to deep, light will escape through the bottom or sides. Different types of cuts are round, marquee, princess, emerald, pear, heart, trillion, and radiant.

Diamonds occur in every color of the spectrum. Yellows, Browns, and Grays are the most commonly found, but the most desirable color is colorless. Truly colorless gems are extremely rare. The less color the diamond has the more valuable it is. The color spectrum for a diamond starts at DEF and goes all the way to Z with D being colorless and Z being yellow.

The clarity refers to the number of imperfections in the diamond. The majority of diamonds have some degree of inclusions in them. The fewer inclusions, the more rare and valuable the diamond is. An inclusion is a natural characteristic which forms during the crystallization process. The clarity spectrum starts at F with Flawless and goes through I which is Imperfect.

Here at Dana’s we have the best prices on diamond solitaires certified and no certified. You tell us the carat, cut, color and clarity your looking for and we’ll find you the Best for Less!!!
