you buy memories and
lasting symbols. Knowing
this, does it make sense to
buy a ring or necklace the
way you buy bread and milk?
Yet, so many people buy
jewellery from the first store
they see because they
assume all jewellery stores
are alike.

Not so. Jewellers and
jewellery stores can differ in
many ways. Finding the right

jewellerer for you is like
“choosing your doctor or
dentist: you want someone
in whom you have con-
fidence and trust.

Consider these points
when choosing your
jeweller:

1. Does he/she have any

formal training in the
jewellery trade? The
jeweller who carries the

letters “G.J."” or “F.G.A.”
after his name has com-
pleted extensive studies in
gemmology. A “Graduate
Jeweller” (G.J.) has suc-
cessfully completed the
Retail Jewellers Training
Course offered by the
Canadian Jewellers Institute.
2. Does he/she have ecx-
perience in the business?

‘and private consultation.

When you buy: jewellery :

WHAT THE. FASHIONABLE doll is wearing this season can be seen at a unique new
- North Vancouver shop: called Treasures and Pleasures at 112 E. 14th St. Margaret Ed-

on displays a beautifully dressed old fashioned doll priced at $600. Her-dolls range
i antique to Present day and prices-are $2 to $1,000.

The jeweller who has been in
business a good number of
years has likely accumulated
extensive knowledge
through practical experience
and this should not be
overlooked.

3. Is the jeweller a member
of the Canadian Jewellers
Association? If so, the
store’s responsible business
past has been verified and
the jeweller has pledged to
maintain his high standards.
Talking to a jeweller can

give you a better sense of
whether or not you will feel
comfortable doing business
with him over the long term.
As with other professionals,

there are many exceptional |

jewellers who can serve your
needs. But do “shop around”
to find the jeweller with
whom you can establish a
good working relationship.
Once you have found him,
trust him and hold on to him.
Like your family doctor, he
is irreplaceable.
