Description

I would like to encourage open discussion in the Lapidary & Metal Arts. I feel it is important to have a group to turn to when you reach a stage you aren't sure of or need help with techniques or business practices...I would like to assemble a group of that type of people! I am a Jewelry Design & Lapidary student in Venice, CA and am working on my Graduate Gemologist Certificate from GIA.
