MARCH 2008

Jewels & Gems Galore

Hi Ho Silver San FranciscoLandmark Building A, Gatehouse, Herbst Pavilion

Treat yourself to luxury this month at three weekends of jewelry sales. Hi Ho Silver San Francisco (SF) returns to the Conference Center on two weekends this month, while the annual gem extravaganza, the Gem Faire, returns to the Herbst Pavilion the weekend of March 14.

The first two weekends of the month see the return of some of the most exquisite sterling silver jewelry this side of Cuernavaca. In fact, Hi Ho Silver SF’s jewelry is imported directly from that city and Taxco, two of Mexico’s most renowned silver producing areas. The intent of the company is to provide the best quality and most interesting designs being produced in sterling silver in Mexico today. Since Hi Ho Silver SF does not maintain a retail store, its overhead is low, and the savings are passed on to the consumer. Hi Ho Silver SF maintains a loyal following of silver lovers who come back again and again for the high-quality product at affordable prices that it offers.

The third weekend in March is one that San Francisco gem and bead lovers look forward to all year. The Gem Faire fills the Herbst Pavilion with every type of bead, gem, and precious stone imaginable. Established in 1989, the fair is a world-renowned marketplace for the finest in gemstones, beads, jewelry, minerals, fossils, meteorites, lapidary equipment, metaphysical items, and more at affordable prices. With over 40 shows each year, it is the largest gem and jewelry show producer on the West Coast. Classes in jewelry basics, wire crocheting, pearl knotting, and more are available for an additional fee. See the web site for the class schedule and pre-registration information.

For more information on both sales, see the March 1 and March 14 calendar listings and www.hihosilver.com and www.gemfaire.com.
