Diamonds
The gift "do luxe"
"Splinters from the stars" the ancients called
them, and they were to them the symbol of affection
as undying as the stars themselves.
So what could be more fitting as a Christinas gift
mounted in ring, brooch, LaValliere, or other at
tractive ways?
Prices as low as $15 and as high as $S50.00, with
scores of other prices between these two extivmes.
Come in and have a talk with us, anyway. We will
be glad to give you the benefit of our years of exper
ience in judging and choosing diamonds.
