Brand Values

• •Authenticity: '100 percent natural gemstones,' 'never use any lab created, glass or synthetic stones.'
• •Quality: 'Best quality gemstones,' 'high quality,' 'handpicked by Mark.'
• •Transparency & Honesty: 'Ethically sourced,' 'background is described honestly.'
• •Customer Focus & Affordability: 'Make them affordable to everyone, on any budget,' 'reasonable prices.'
• •Education & Discovery: Introducing customers to 'gemstones that you will not see in many to most major jewelry stores.'
• •Craftsmanship: 'Handmade treasures,' 'classic and minimalist jewelry designs.'
• •Passion: Stemming from a personal hobby and a love for gemstones.

Best Practices

• •Lead with Expertise, but Keep it Accessible: Share detailed gemological information (origin, treatments (or lack thereof), unique properties) but explain it in a way that's understandable and engaging for a broader audience. Avoid overly technical jargon without explanation.
• •Emphasize Authenticity and Ethics Consistently: Every piece of copy related to products should reiterate the 'natural,' 'untreated,' and 'ethically sourced' aspects, as these are core differentiators and highly valued by customers.
• •Let Passion Shine Through: Use enthusiastic and descriptive language that conveys a genuine love for gemstones. Share the stories behind the stones or the design inspiration when possible.
• •Maintain a Personal Touch: Incorporate the 'family business' aspect and Mark's personal involvement (and even the charming story of Oliver the cat where appropriate, like on more casual platforms like Etsy/Facebook) to build connection and relatability.
• •Focus on the Gemstone's Intrinsic Value: Reinforce that the designs are created to enhance and showcase the natural beauty of the gemstone itself, aligning with the minimalist and classic design philosophy.
