This website is exclusively maintained by Ashby. I am a currently a student at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and a member of the Diamond Council of America (DCA), and thus am fulfilling my lifelong dream of becoming a graduate gemologist – the terminal degree within the field; and in addition I also work as a professional within the field for a well known company.
Since the age of seven, I have had an ever growing and endless passion for what I consider to be nature’s greatest manifestation of beauty. It is my life, and my true love, and in a phrase… my everything. I hope that each of you will contribute and appreciate this site as much as I enjoy being its creator.
