Care of Turquoise Beads

Today’s hottest semi-precious gemstone is turquoise. Turquoise can be readily seen throughout the fashion world. This beautiful blue stone is one of the oldest known gemstones, worn by Pharaohs and Aztec Kings alike. Before you buy turquoise jewelry, there are some important things to know regarding the proper care of turquoise beads.

Turquoise is a very soft gemstone, so you should avoid dropping it at any cost. Stabilized turquoise (turquoise that has been coated with a clear resin) is stronger to some extent, but you still need to be careful when storing it. Turquoise should not be stored with any harder gemstones or other materials that could scratch and damage the surface. The best way to store turquoise jewelry is in it’s own jewelry box or pouch.

Turquoise should also be kept away from high heat, oils and chemicals. Even hairsprays and perfume can damage the surface of turquoise so be sure to remove your jewelry before using such products.

If you want to renew the luster of your turquoise jewelry, simply bluff it gently with a clean soft cloth. To clean turquoise, wash gently in warm sudsy water and dry immediately with a clean soft cloth. Be sure to avoid any commercial jewelry cleansers, especially silver cleaner which will discolor the turquoise.

Follow these guidelines and you will be able to preserve the beauty and luster of your turquoise jewelry for many years to come.

Seasons Greetings from The Red Jewel


Hi everyone,

As I'm busy churning out the last few pieces of the Christmas collection, just thought that I'd let you guys in on a very important piece of news pertaining potential orders: I will be flying off to Singapore on the 7th of December for my hard-earned holidays and will not be back till end January next year, meaning that I will be MIA as far as new releases to The Red Jewel is concerned for around 2 months!

Unfortunately, in these 2 months of my holidaying overseas, I won't be able to accept new orders; hence, I will stop receiving new orders* w.e.f the 5th of December (next Friday).

*If you want to order something that is not yet marked as 'Sold Out' during the period of my holiday, you can still email me about it and I'll see if I have it on hand- I will be bringing whatever remaining stock of jewellery that has already been made back to Singapore with me, so if you're lucky I might just have what you wanted :)

DON'T PANIC THOUGH! If you were eyeing some stuff for friends/family as Christmas pressies, the options are:

1. Make full use of this Christmas special and SHOP UP NOW before the 5th of December.
2. Wait till next year, when I return from holidaying, to process your order. (never too late for belated Christmas/New Year's pressies I guess... but I would still recommend the first option!)

I think that's about it for now. And just before you guys embark on your shopping sprees, don't forget to hang on to a bit of cash for the upcoming Xmas collection as well!

PS If you have a big order, please send it in asap as it will benefit both of us (alright, me mostly) so that I won't be overwhelmed with the volume of the order, and have a bit of time to work around it.

Please note: During the period of the Christmas Special, all membership benefit discount schemes are invalid. The Red Jewel's Christmas Special also does not apply for customizations.

The Brown Beauty

The chocolate pearls have derived the name as “chocolate pearls” due to the fact that they are enhanced or produced by altering the melanin pigment of the natural occurring pearls. This is done by the use of advanced and latest proprietary technologies that are developed by companies like Shanghai Gems of Geneva and Ballerina Pearl Company of New York.

The chocolate pearls are characterized by an unusual bronze, copper or a rust brown hue along with the strong iridescent overtones. Dyes or coloring agents are not used in order to produce the brilliant chocolate color of the pearl in case of the legitimate chocolate pearls. The price range of the chocolate pearls is very expensive as compared to the different variety of pearls in the market.

The dyed or artificially colored chocolate pearls come under the class of “treated pearls”. These treated pearls are available at a comparatively low price as competed to the untreated chocolate pearls. Thus, those having a strong love and feeling to use the chocolate pearls, but are limited to spend a small amount of money can satisfy themselves with the treated chocolate pearls.

The chocolate color of the chocolate pearls is derived due to the processing used in its alteration, according to the GIA. The bleaching and the heating process carried out on the fancy colored Tahitian pearls are responsible for the color modifications. This process can be recognized by a typical fluorescence, an unusual spectroscopic sign and the trace element composition.

The chocolate pearls are the most sought after pearls in today’s leading fashion pearl industry. It makes a bold statement of style, taste and sigma. It is a thing that can be cherished forever. You can buy a complete set of chocolate pearls including a chocolate pearl necklace, earrings, and bracelet to please anyone on any special occasion.

Making a Pearl cross

There are a different variety of Arts and Crafts projects that people like you are highly interested in. these projects not only include paper and cloth activities, but it also includes beaded projects. Today, I am going to talk about how to make a pearl beaded cross.

Firstly, to make a pearl beaded cross, you should collect all the material that will be required to carry on the project. You will need about 100-110 beads or pearls that are ranging in size about 3mm or more than that and cut three fishing line about 0.25mm that is about 70-90cm each.

Now you can start with making your pearl cross. The first step in the process is to string five pearls and then cross the fishing line through one, pulling it tight. Then, string three more pearls and cross them from the middle pearl. Then string four pearls on the either side of the line i.e. on the right side as well as the left side, crossing each line back to the first pearl. Repeat the process in the same way for both the sides.

The next step is to cross the line back the second and the third pearl from the second step. Here, string four pearls and cross them back the first bead in this step. Cross the line back at the forth and the first pearl, from the second step. Then string and cross one pearl with both the lines. Here, at this point string three pearls from the middle pearl and repeat this process thrice. String five pearls and then tie. Make another piece similarly like this as you will need two pieces.

Now you have a 3D cross. You can string it and use it as a key ring, key chain, hand phone accessory, as a pendant, on a rosary, etc and many more uses that are limited only by your imagination.

Aftermath of Exam Madness... BACK!


Yes, I'm back 2 days early with the products of the results of my mid-exam destressing: a lot more jewellery! (I just couldn't bear to leave this site stagnant for 48 hours more, so... HAD to make a comback!)

These pieces were tres specially made, so many of them only come with 1 available. That's also why some of them are significantly pricier, because of the limited availability of the design and the time it took me to conjure the final product. I hope you guys will like them all as much as I enjoyed making them.

The new design's nice, isn't it? I figured I had to break away from the old, loads-really-slowly layout previously to something new and refreshing. My humblest apologies everyone for the prolonged inaccessibility to the website during that week or so that it was under construction as well!

Another thing: I went crazy after the end of my exams and my mum was so kind as to bring me bead-shopping, and I am thrilled with my 3 new boxes of charms and beads just sitting there on my worktable, waiting to be used! Here's some sneak peeks of stuff that I bought:


These are just the teensiest fraction of whatever I've bought. So you'll probably be seeing these components in the new additions of jewellery in the very near future!

One last thing- the entire mailing list system has been changed, so if you haven't already done so, existing TRJ mailing list members should re-join the mailing list by clicking this link. Be sure to check your junk mail to make sure that the validation emails aren't being directed to your junk as well!

Well, that's all from me now. I'll try to have an xmas collection loaded soon... so you have that to look forward to as well :) Thanks for being so patient with me everyone!
