In the era of personalization, consumers increasingly seek products that reflect their unique tastes and preferences. This trend is particularly evident in the jewelry industry, where consumers seek to transform expensive items into profoundly personal and customized pieces. Among the trusted names in bespoke jewelry design, The Rare Gemstone Company (RGC) stands out as a veteran, continuously drawing customers back for its personalized creations.

A Legacy of Customization

Founded in 1974, The Rare Gemstone Company has spent nearly five decades perfecting the art of custom jewelry design. Its “Design Your Own” service has become a cornerstone of its offerings, allowing customers to create unique pieces that reflect their style.

“Our clients come to us because they want something extraordinary,” says Antony Zagoritis, CEO of The Rare Gemstone Company. “They’re not just buying jewelry; they’re creating heirlooms that tell their personal stories.”

The company’s perspective on customized gemstones goes beyond simple alterations. It offers a comprehensive design experience combining state-of-the-art technology with traditional craftsmanship, certifying each piece is as unique as its owner.

When Technology Meets Personal Design

At the heart of The Rare Gemstone Company’s custom design service is its advanced Jewelry Design Wizard. This online tool revolutionizes customers’ interaction with the design process, offering an intuitive interface that allows users to experiment with different combinations of gemstones, settings, and metals.

Customers widely appreciate the wizard’s ability to calculate prices as designs evolve automatically. It eliminates the uncertainty often associated with custom jewelry, allowing clients to make informed decisions about their creations within budget constraints. For Zagoritis, this tool aligns with its promise of transparency and vision to help customers design customized gemstones easily.  

“Our Jewelry Design Wizard is like having a virtual jeweler at your fingertips,” Zagoritis explains. “It empowers customers to explore their creativity while providing real-time pricing, making the entire process transparent and enjoyable.”

The Industry Advantage

The Rare Gemstone Company’s custom service is further distinguished by its extensive collection of rare and high-quality gemstones sourced by its GIA qualified gemologists. Specializing in Tanzanite, Tsavorite, and other African gems, RGC offers customers access to stones that are often difficult to find elsewhere.

“We source our gems directly from mines in East Africa,” Zagoritis notes. “These direct relationships with mine owners allow us to secure the finest gemstones as soon as they’re discovered. This means our customers have the first pick of truly exceptional stones for their custom pieces.” 

The company’s extensive collection makes certain that each customer finds the perfect centerpiece for their design. The range of options from vibrant blue Tanzanites to lush green Tsavorites caters to diverse preferences and design visions.

Expert Guidance and Craftsmanship

While the online design tool offers convenience and creative freedom, The Rare Gemstone Company recognizes the value of expert guidance in the jewelry design process. This is why its customers can work closely with the company’s experienced designers, discussing style preferences, settings, and metal types of their customized gemstones.

Zagoritis emphasizes that their design team doesn’t just translate ideas into jewelry; instead, they elevate them. The Rare Gemstone Company offers valuable insights to improve the overall sound design, like suggesting the ideal gemstone to complement a particular style, recommending harmonious color combinations, or highlighting subtle details that enhance the overall aesthetic.

“Our team brings years of combined experience to each project,” Zagoritis mentions. “This aptitude establishes that every custom piece is truly what customers imagine and even better.” 

Once a design is finalized, The Rare Gemstone Company’s skilled artisans and goldsmiths bring the customized gemstone to life using state-of-the-art techniques and equipment. This blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology results in jewelry pieces of exceptional quality and beauty.

The Rare Gemstone Company Difference

The Rare Gemstone Company’s quality, transparency, and prioritizing customer satisfaction have earned it a loyal following. The Rare Gemstone Company subjects each custom piece to rigorous quality checks and provides comprehensive documentation, including GIA system Gemstone, grading, and provenance reports.

The Rare Gemstone Company recognizes that every custom jewelry piece holds a unique and personal story. It understands that these customized gemstones are more than just accessories; they symbolize love, milestones, and individual expression. This appreciation behind each design drives the company to be part of every customer’s journey.

New App Crossed Helps College Students Forge Real Connections Beyond the Screen

Published

Gen Z is breaking up with dating apps, and for good reason. Many of these platforms just grab your eyeballs and hold on to them until you feel drained, rather than help you do what you logged on to do — find new friends, professional contacts, and exciting people to date. That’s why more and more college students are declining to join them.

However, technology doesn’t necessarily have to be a problem — at least, not if it’s approached correctly.

Due to one new app’s uncanny ability to help college students grow their social circles in real life, it’s fast becoming the most popular new social networking platform on campus. Called Crossed, the app bridges the online and real worlds, taking advantage of technology’s strengths while shedding its weaknesses. 

By leveraging sophisticated geolocation technology in a whole new way, Crossed introduces people who have literally crossed each others’ paths. As a result, they can make new friends and connections without even trying.

Crossed can be used to find friends, professional contacts, and dates

While Crossed can be used as a dating app, that’s only part of what it offers. Users can choose to participate in any or all of its three modes: Dating, Friendship, and Business, which is dedicated to professional networking.

Each mode is entirely distinct from the others, which means users’ profiles are never shared with anyone who isn’t interested in the same kind of connection as themselves. Gone are the days of disappointing other people because you reached out to them on a dating app as a possible friend or business contact, not a romantic interest.

College students have been finding numerous ways to use all three modes. The Business mode helps them meet other students in their courses and find study partners, while the Friendship mode connects them to other students who want to do fun activities or hang out together, and the Dating mode helps them find prospects to talk to and possibly ignite a relationship with.

Crossed does all this without any annoying swiping.

Crossed introduces you to those whose paths you’ve just crossed

Crossed’s innovative approach doesn’t require you to make snap judgments about hundreds of people based on their profile pictures. Instead, it uses cutting-edge geolocation technology to serve as your ultimate best friend, paying close attention to what you like to do and where you tend to go. Then, it scans the environment, searching for other members of the Crossed community who have similar habits. It only alerts you to the existence of other users whose paths have literally crossed your own.

“Say you love sailing or rowing,” says Conor Crighton, co-founder and COO of Crossed. “Crossed can introduce you to other people who go to the boathouse. If you like to study in the art history library, then it can introduce you to other students who do the same thing. Maybe you’re a big coffee connoisseur — Crossed can introduce you to other people who hang out at the same coffee shop.”

“If you went to a party but didn’t have the nerve to talk to someone, Crossed can come to your rescue, pointing out that you were both in the same place the night before,” says Manny Manzel, co-founder and CEO of Crossed. “That’s a much easier way to start a conversation. Plus, you won’t have to scream at each other over loud music.”

While other social networking apps require lots of time and effort, Crossed works in the background while you do other things. “The app multitasks on your behalf,” Manzel explains. “It constantly works to find new contacts for you so that you don’t have to. It also introduces you to people so you don’t have to walk up to them for no apparent reason and go through the awkwardness of introducing yourself cold.”

Crossed also takes security seriously. All communication on the platform is encrypted to the highest standards, and its “Safe Mode” feature allows users to choose which potential matches can view their profiles. Additionally, once Crossed’s “Safe Mode” is activated, you will not appear to other users around you unless you are both at a safe distance apart to further protect your personal safety and avoid unwanted matches.

Fill your college experience with fun

No one should spend their precious college years holed up in their dorm room, staring at a screen and feeling lonely. With Crossed, no one needs to anymore. 

Crossed helps college students get out of their dorm rooms, make friends, and find those special people who are interested in the same things as themselves. In this way, Crossed puts technology in service of the real world, rather than vice versa.

Meet the people who will be your college friends for the rest of your life. Meet your future roommates and business partners. Meet the love of your life. Join Crossed today!
