I was writing on the coloured gemstone thread about an emerald and diamond ring I bought in 1990 and went to look up the web for the website of the jeweller which is in England so far from where I live.
I have just found out that they have gone into receivership on Thursday.
Very sad.
This is the website for the company http://www.prestonandduckworth.co.uk/about_us.htm
I bought that ring and I love it but don''t know if it was really worth what I paid. I now know to get expensive purchases appraised prior to buying.
I just remembered that Lord Summerisle is in Lancashire, does he know anything about this company. It says they are family owned but I thought they were a chain store which they are as they have 7 locations.
They told me a while ago they were a prestigious jeweller but I don''t know about that now. The purchase I made was from one of their catalogues so I was never at the store.
