Hi all! I am new to the forums here. I recently began a (very meager) collection of estate, vintage, and antique fine jewelry. I've been interested in jewelry for a very long time, and in the past collected turquoise and sterling jewelry, as well as unique vintage costume jewelry. I've worked with jewelry a bit myself and took a very basic class in high school (13 years ago... LOL).
I'm fascinated by the world of gemology that I am starting to learn about as I research the potential value of some of the pieces I've acquired and I would love to know what gemologists love/like/dislike/hate about their jobs. I love learning and if I continue down this route I'd certainly consider getting GIA certified. What do you think? Would you recommend it?
Thanks in advance. Have loved reading through the forums so far!
