28Apr Ethical Gem Fair - Covid-19 update
Hello everyone! We hope you are keeping fit and well.
Like all of you, we are doing our best to contend with the strange situation in which we find ourselves at the moment. Also, like you, we had so many plans for these weeks and months which have now had to be changed, postponed or cancelled.
Amongst those plans were our Ethical Gem Fairs in London, Edinburgh, Bristol and Glasgow, where we had looked forward to seeing so many of you in person and showing you our latest gemstones. For obvious reasons, that simply was not possible and we are still not sure when the next time will be when we can meet you face-to-face.
However, we know that designing and making jewellery continues to be important for many of you during this period of social distancing and self-isolation, so we wanted to let you know that we are still operating our businesses and supplying gems to our customers as best we can.
If you need any shiny, new stones for your ongoing projects, you can contact us in the usual ways (our phone numbers and email addresses are below). We are also getting better at video calls and Zoom if you want to see us too :)
For Gemstones Brazil (www.gemstonesbrazil.com) and Nineteen48 (www.nineteen48.com), you can also buy gems directly from our websites.
We hope it won't be too long before we see you again, but in the meantime, stay safe and look after yourselves.
