ABBOTT Indeed they have a long and established history for quality. They were owned by Gorham at one point. In the past, they shared a very good reputation. I can not comment on their reputation today though. I'm unsure if they aren't part of a big conclomerate or not. That said, more than likely, you will be paying a premium to shop with them.

Cut Rock Total Posts: 469 Last Post: 1/13/2008 Member Since: 10/10/2004	From what I understand, Black Starr & Frost are much like Tiffanys: you get a great product but at a very inflated price. If you want it to be simple and easy then go for it - I don't think they will sell you junk, you will probably get something beautiful and of good quality - but you will definitely pay for it! _____________________________________________ [Formerly Indecisive ... not anymore!]

Just for my 2 cents - unless e-ring money is couch change for you, I'd suggest using BS&F for ideas then going via a PS vendor - you'll get an amazing stone, a beautiful setting (custom if you want), and for probably half the price! If your GF is hesitant have her surf around reading PS for a few weeks and she'll come around! _____________________________________________ [Formerly Indecisive ... not anymore!]

RockDoc Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,509 Last Post: 6/17/2007 Member Since: 8/16/2000	It's been quite a few years, but BSF had a local store here and was robbed and subsquently was closed. Originally BSF was a fine store, but in the corporate takeover world, I believe they were bought by Kay Jewelers. In the interim they could have been again sold to another entitiy, but thought I let you know what I knew. May review the corporate year end reports of Kay jewelers, and if they still own it - it would probably be on their year end reports for stockholders. Rockdoc Bill Leiberum 1948-2007 Thanks for everything and Rest In Peace,Bill.
