GemGourmet's Profile

Bio

Hi and Welcome!

I have been a jewelry designer for well over 20 years. (see my jewelry etsy site, link in my shop announement.)

I have been very blessed as a designer. I have had worked published in several books and magazines and I have written several tutorials as well *smiling*.

My name is Cary Martin.. although I have just opened my GemGourmet store, I have been selling my jewelry line on Etsy (under CaryMartinDesigns) for almost a year and on ebay for over 7 years with 100% perfect feedback…

Please keep an eye on my new Gem Gourmet store.. many new yummy gems to come~

I live in Orlando and have the ability to purchase gems at very good prices from direct importers. This cuts down on the middle-man and you save money.

I buy only the gems that I find to be stunning and the very best AA – AAA quality, they have to really blow me away for me to want to pass them on… there are plenty of the “ordinary” out there already. I will always strive to bring you the beautiful and also the unique, stones that I use in my own creations.. many that will be rare and collectable.

PLEASE NOTE:
I charge 7% tax on all sales in the State of Florida.
