The Tucson "Gem Show" is an incredible combination of over 40 Shows at different locations around the city. Every member of the Jewelry Industry makes it out to this incredible event to see what the world has to offer in Gemstones, Cutting Techniques and even Enhancement Possibilities. As the largest gathering of Gemstones and People working with gemstones, Tucson in February is like the Cannes Film Festival of the Gem and Mineral World. When Tucson morphs into a giant treasure box, the best of the best raid tent after tent to search for: the new, the exotic, the rare, and the innovative.

The Tucson Gem shows are some of my favorite events, I inevitably come down with Gem-fever cured only by leaving with something exotic. Diamonds might be a girl's best friend, but Gemstones are like passionate love affairs, and I love a good love story! Maybe it's the allure of having something no one else has, or the adventure of colorful fantasy, or maybe it's just the geek obsession of mineralogy and chemical reactions, either way I pine all year for the Tucson Gem Shows.

When The Shopping Channel approached me to do a Tucson Gemstone Show, I knew I had to do it. Not just because I have an ongoing love affair with gems, but because the man who gave me Gem-Fever actually passed away last year during the Tucson Gem Shows. Having 50,000 Canadian Friends to share with gave me the perfect opportunity to pay tribute to my Great Grandfather John Bing.

The Shopping Channel and I got right to work building a once in a lifetime Gemstone collection complete with Exotic stones I had found the year before, some cut and waiting to be set in the perfect mountings, some still rough waiting to be cut and a list of Gemstones we were going to gamble on in hopes of finding more at the 2013 Shows. We carefully selected the perfect designs to complement each gemstone and its unique properties. For the stones we did not yet have anywhere but on a wish list, we contacted all our best miners and lapidaries with missions to seek out and acquire our perfect dimensions. The Gemstones do all the talking in each piece of this collection and what they have to say is elegant and profound.
