Surety Jewellery Valuations

Respected local jeweller, T Paterson in Perth has some exciting news for lovers of natural Scottish pearls. I am excited to see what collections they create.

We're delighted to announce that we've been awarded a prestigious Scottish Freshwater Pearl Licence from the Scottish Government's Nature Agency, NatureScot. Many of you have asked us about this and, as well as protecting the Scottish freshwater pearl mussels that produce these highly sought-after gemstones, being awarded this licence allows us to sell these unique pearls - often known as Tay pearls - as long as they were fished before 1991, when the ban on fishing them began. We'll soon have a stunning, though limited, range of Scottish freshwater pearl jewellery in stock. As these haven't been fished for over 30 years, our stocks are very limited, but we are also offering you the opportunity to choose your own pearl and commission a bespoke piece of jewellery with it. If you're interested in owning one (or more!), please do get in touch.

Stuart at Finnies is retiring after 42 years of loyal service at Finnies in Aberdeen. I am sure many of you know Stuart. Can you support his unusual and generous parting shot?

I love this image. Cutting style and shape are not the same thing.

Did you know that there's a difference between a diamond’s shape and its cut style? Popular diamond shapes include round, oval, pear, marquise, heart and more. A diamond’s cut style describes how its facets are arranged, which is typically either brilliant cut or step cut.

Most diamond shapes are usually brilliant cut. Although, square and rectangular diamonds can be either brilliant cut or step cut. Brilliant cut examples include princess and radiant cuts. Step cut examples include emerald and Asscher cuts.

Facets on brilliant cut diamonds tend to be triangular or kite-shaped, whereas, facets tend to be trapezoidal on step cut diamonds.
