While we’re quite sure we only scratched the surface of possibilities in exploring the Louvre, we dove right into the French Crown Jewels and may have spent most of our time in this one section! 😅 What can I say? We love gems! We did see the Mona Lisa (scroll!).

Ginger and I interrupted our busy art appreciation days and our jewelry inspired tourism with a relaxed Seine River cruise and a sunset visit to the Eiffel Tower - oh and more FABULOUS food!

Today Ginger and I explored Paris by bike: the Eiffel Tower, River Seine, the Louvre, Notre Dame from afar due to restoration efforts, Arc de Triomphe, Fontaine Saint-Michel, and so much sunshine. Stay tuned - we’ve still got a River Seine cruise and the Eiffel Tower by night!

Day One in Paris was remarkably jet-lag free, included a walk to Sacré Coeur in the fabulous weather, patisserie visits and Croque Monsiuers, strolling through Montmarte, and fulfilling our tourist duty of putting our lock on Pont Neuf!

The world renowned Sri Lankan Blue Sapphires are what got me started in the gem business almost 41 years ago and they remain my passion and delight all these years later. Which is why we’re headed back again to purchase more!!! On top of that, the cushion cut has reigned supreme for centuries. So, you can’t really go wrong here! What do you think? What shape do you like best for Sapphires?

It’s May and my son-in-law Bjorn @sune.bjorn is a true lover of Emeralds so here he is to talk about why he loves them!

Hi! This is Bjorn and Emerald is my birthstone, but I also love Emeralds for lots of other reasons. The vibrancy of Emerald’s green color is unlike any other gemstone. For a lover of a pure and true green color, Emerald has answered the call for centuries. While some might see Emerald’s inclusions as detracting from their beauty, I see Emerald’s inclusions as their identity. Just like everyone is perfect in their own way, every Emerald is perfect in its own way!

Each of these Emeralds are available at rogerdery.com with the following registry numbers:
2111048
2201040
2204028
