GJX - Rob Lowe - THE Colored Gem Dealer #TucsonGemShow

Every year I make sure to stop by Rob's booth at GJX - this last year I had a great little surprise - Rob was in a meeting and the Award Winning Gem Cutter, Stephen Kotlowski was minding the booth.

Thought I would share some photos of the fabulous gems - getting ready for the 2014 show!

My apologies to Rob - these cases were jammed full but I didn't get over to photograph them until the last day...

Weekend Vendor Spotlight on Rob Lowe Assoc.

The Rob Lowe booth at GJX is always slammed and don't be surprised if you run into some of the biggest names in faceting! ...which is an obvious indicator of the quality and reputation of this company's product.  Whether it is facet rough, pre-forms or cut gems you can count on the Rob Lowe booth!  Rob is easy to work with and always carries the rare stones that make your work stand out from the crowd and if "chain of custody" is important to you...he deals direct with the mine and can tell you exactly where your rough came from.

My apologies to Rob - these cases were jammed full but I didn't get over to photograph them until the last day...

Brilliant Hues - Lowe Associates at GJX!

There aren't enough adjectives in the English language to describe the row after row of beautiful gem rough and faceted gems in the Lowe Associates booth!  I am kicking myself for not taking a photo of the gigantic (that's a technical measurement) Color Change Garnet cut by Dave Perry!

Robert Lowe brings gems straight from the source...Brazilian gems, and he can tell you the mine source. So - when words don't work I can only let the pictures tell the story.
