FYI all you lovers of beautiful natural gemstones ... here is a link to a site that has been under construction for quite a while. It used to be "CherryPicked.com" (LOVED this site!) - they are getting ready to launch again soon and if you want to click in the link below, and enter your email address, they will let you know when they launch.
I strongly agree with the values of 'Richard Orbach', ...who will be launching the new site ......
"All my life I have gravitated toward creation. As a parent (my ultimate joy), a musician-composer or a serial entrepreneur, my path has always led me to the spark that brings things to life.
Cushion Gem is the natural evolution of my journey as a businessman, an artist and a gemstone person since my gemological training at the GIA in 1975. It is the culmination of decades of hard-earned gemstone knowledge combined with the seed planted in me when I began doing business - as a much younger man - with Reginald Miller, the trade's leading cutter of gems.

It is a testament to "Reg's" art that Cushion Gem's purpose begins with cutting and a quality associated with my lifelong journey of always dealing with finer materials. It is in cutting - the last frontier that a gemstone can be branded and improved (without any loss of integrity) - that I intend on focusing and it is there in cutting that creation's embers reside. I've never been satisfied to simply pass on my purchases like 99% of gem traders do. If I am not adding value, adding purpose, adding beauty then I feel mercenary, even empty.
Cushion Gem will incorporate some of your favorite things from CherryPicked in new ways. Next time you'll hear from me, I will also introduce our new staff members along with some new features we hope you'll embrace just as you embraced CherryPicked before.
Our new slogan "Gemstones Commissioned for Generations" reflects my personal journey and incorporates elements of the past, present and the future. The slogan can be read as implying that we have been dealing in gemstones for generations (the past) - which we have, 2 to be exact - and alternately it can be read as a promissory inferring that gemstone commissioned through Cushion Gem will appreciate in value (thus far they have) and also be appreciated for generations in your household. Truth is evident in both these statements." See More"
