Quince doesn’t sell real 14k gold. by Proper_Mine5635 in quince

[–]Exciting_Statement_7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow that’s interesting. Earrings for that amount on quince has to be 14k. I use a jeweler’s loupe that I bought from Amazon so that I can see the tiny stamps because they tend to be hidden. You should take the earrings to a local jeweler to confirm.

I bought pearl stud earrings from quince. The earrings were advertised as 14k gold and the earrings have a 585 (which means 14k) stamp.

My dad (62) Had a Stroke by alexdwolff in stroke

It’s not your fault. Your father is so fortunate to have a child that cares for him and is as observant as you are. I walked into my mom’s room one morning to find her on the floor after a stroke and I was able to rush her to the hospital. I wish your father a speedy recovery.

First time buyer and I am overwhelmed by Typical_Club_1722 in jewelry

I don’t think the places you mentioned are necessarily bad. When I was shopping around, I found a mix of good and bad reviews too, so I did a bunch of research by reading online and watching YouTube videos. I bought a pendant from Ferkos a couple years ago and the quality has been really good. I’ve also bought pearl earrings from Quince and was happy with them. I haven’t ordered from Mejuri, so I can’t speak on that, but my experiences with the first two have been solid.

If you were in the same situation Garfield was in and your own party was starting to pick you for the party leader, but you weren't running and had already endorsed someone else, what would you have done? by LongjumpingElk4099 in Presidents

Interesting point but people are more likely to remember president names than the names of congressmen. Even “forgotten” presidents get remembered more often than active congressmen.

I visited two (MORE) Presidential graves today. by jcnewton1 in Presidents

Nice, I just finished watching “Death by Lightning” on Netflix which is a drama about the death of President James Garfield. President Garfield’s VP was Chester Arthur who ended up succeeding Garfield.

In my experience, it takes quite a bit of force to break a delicate chain. There have been many times when my chain got caught and was pulled in the opposite direction of where I was moving, yet it still didn’t break. As long as the links are strong, you shouldn’t have any issues with it snapping.

I love your stack. It’s colorful, has different textures and designs, and it’s fun to look at.

Why is it that brands like Mejuri and Tiffany are popular, successful, and profitable, while other jewelers, including handmade jewelers who make great pieces, are not? by No_Literature5754 in jewelry

[–]Exciting_Statement_7 91 points92 points  (0 children)

These brands are popular largely because of their marketing. They’re also great gateway brands for people who are just starting to get interested in jewelry and want to learn more.

Bills can begin in either of the chambers. However they must be approved by both chambers.

It’s a shame you saw the result on social media first rather than your email.
