Why is the rep for Aquaprase stones wearing his safari outfit? Didn't he have time to go home and change clothes?
Come on QVC....


@U of M Go Blue  His safari outfit reminded me of Crocodile Dundee Smiley Very Happy! I really was surprised by the juxtaposition of elegant and very pricy jewelry and his outfit.  I get that he's a gem explorer and digs for gems, but his outfit  came across as kind of campy and performative and I feel that if he wants the prices to be that high, he should look the part and wear a nice suit.  Jay King the jeweler of HSN explores and goes into caves, but he wears dress shirts and suits during his presentations. The Gem Explorer can show his ruggedness in maybe a cool leather bracelet or a necklace with a leather cord, but the whole outfit was too much for me.   He seems like a nice guy and a very creative and talented guy, but I'd like to see him dressed up in a suit.

I didn't see the show but happened to hit the page online.  All I could think of was why isn't this stone in silver so I can afford it?  I suggest they think about this if there is a lot of this stone available.

@depglass   There is not a lot of this stone available. It comes from one pit in Africa and that is filling with water. Supply is limited.

 

 You can find more affordable pieces on Etsy. Some are set in silver.
