Custom Design
    At Poag’s Jewellers, our goal is to make sure you LOVE your jewellery! Our goldsmiths and designers would be happy to design a matching band to your engagement ring or to create something new from your old jewellery. Our motto is Reuse, Recycle, Reward yourself! You can bring in any of your jewellery you just don’t wear anymore and we can recycle any of the gold or stones so you can reward yourself with something new!  Whether it be reinventing an old style or restoring a heirloom, Poag’s is here for you. 
  
   With any custom work done at Poag’s Jewellers, we have over 50 years of experience to help you with your designs. We can carve a wax, to help you visualize the finished product - so there will be no surprises.  You have the opportunity to approve the wax model and the costs before we create anything.  If you want to design the perfect match to your engagement ring, or have a unique design for your wedding bands – we are more than happy to make those ideas come to life! If you want to see just how it is done, check out this video of our goldsmiths hard at work creating your custom design. 


Traveling With Your Jewellery
                     
  There are many different things to think about when getting ready for a honeymoon or vacation and one thing that is often overlooked is how to care for your jewellery.  Here are a few simple tips to make packing for your trip a little bit easier!
 
 What to Bring With You
    When trying to decide which pieces of jewellery to bring with you, consider what pieces that will be appropriate for the activities you will be participating in, for example, you don’t need to be wearing your finest to be scuba diving in the ocean!  For the pieces you will be leaving at home, make sure they are safely stowed away at home in a safe or in a safety deposit box. 
    Choosing to take jewellery with you while traveling is a personal decision and should be made with not only style in mind, but also information about where you will be traveling to and what you will be participating in while you are there.
    If you decide to take higher value pieces or pieces that aren’t easily replaceable, it is a good idea to have easily accessible proper documentation for them - for example, an appraisal or detailed purchase receipts.  This way, in case of loss, damage, or questions at customs, ownership is easier to establish.
 
How to Store Your Jewellery While Traveling
    When you are packing your jewellery, it is best to keep your items separated, as certain metals and gemstones can cause harm to others.  You can separate them easily with a travel jewellery case, which has separate compartments and sections for specific items, or you can simply separate them using plastic zipper bags or tissue.  When ready to travel, it is best to be wearing your jewellery or having it safely packed in your carry on baggage.
 
While on Your Vacation
    While you are enjoying your vacation, it is best to be wearing and enjoying your jewellery.  If you are unable to wear your items, it is best to store them in supplied in-room safes. It is always advised with rings, especially when traveling to tropical locations, to make sure it is properly sized and to be very careful when participating in water activities - as the rings may become loose in the water and be lost.

There are many things to keep in mind while traveling, when it comes to your jewellery, just keep in mind only to take as many items as you feel comfortable with and to take precautions so you won’t be worrying while you are enjoying your vacation!!



Gemstone of the month
                      
    The gemstone for the month of March is Aquamarine.  Aquamarine is an extraordinary stone found in a beautiful range of light blue shades.  This stone gets its name from Latin words meaning “Water - Aqua” and “Sea - Mare” and gets its colour from traces of iron.  Aquamarine is mined in many locations throughout the world, including Brazil, USA, Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan and Russia.  
 
Legends and Lore
    Aquamarine has many interesting legends surrounding its history - it is believed to endow its wearer with foresight, courage and happiness and is also said to increase intelligence!
    Aquamarine, since the middle ages, was said to reduce the effect of poisons and prevent seasickness.  
    It is also said to be used by sailors when they are at sea.  Many have believed that aquamarine would protect them and bring them home safely to their loved ones.

                                          
Versatility
    Aquamarine has a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scale (diamond being a 10) which makes it a great candidate for everyday wear in many different styles of jewellery. Aquamarine is also a stone that by nature is typically very eye clean - so from rings to pendants, aquamarine makes a beautiful addition to any jewellery collection.
