In addition to what we have already received, new goods will be arriving during December and early part of January. All Settings are 18-ct Gold. Prtftris are of.fino quality, proporly set in the gold, aiul do not fall out. All gems are also of excellent quality.

We have a large stock of Pearls, Diamonds, Rubies, Emeralds, Olivines, Sapphires, Opals and Turquoises unmounted. Wo would call attention to the Quality and value of our goods.
