Updates & tips from Tom Tivol Jewelry & Gemstone Appraisals, LLC
"Semi Precious" as a Descriptive Term for Colored Gemstones
At some point in history, gemstones were classified in two divisions: Those worn more formally included diamond, pearl, emerald, ruby, sapphire and opal, while the balance of the world of colored stones were worn during the day. This classification was not scientific; rather it was cultural, almost like a caste system.

Tom Tivol is the BEST!
My husband and I were nervous about meeting with a private jeweler to design my engagement ring, but Tom made the whole experience easy and fun. After just a few minutes meeting with him, it become obvious how well he understood the details of the diamond and design we ...wanted. His is truly an expert at what he does, and I'm certain that if we'd gone somewhere else we would not have had the same experience. I cannot recommend Tom enough ... make an appointment!
Exceptional Business!
Tom Tivol is simply amazing at what he does. His expertise is unmatched, and the quality of his work is exceptional. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to buy a custom-designed piece of jewelry!
