Small diamonds or colored
stones such as you may find in
these old fashioned pieces of
jewelry can turn a gold disc into
a valuable charm when used to
trace your initial on it.. or to
highlight some other engraved
design. You may already have
charm or other piece Of jewelry
which will be greatly enhanced
by the addition of such stones.
One especially attractive way to
use small stones is to trace a
design in one of the new gold
dome rings which are becoming
so popular.

the engagement ring which was
presented to her when she was
