    Presenters 'duetting'

    I personally find the whole dual presenting thing just unnecessary. It is much better with a calm single presenter like Jeff in Gemporia or maybe Chloe on TJC. I find two OTT at times.

    Sarah the screaming Presenter!

    Indeed... why do they all feel the need to shout at us and scream at us? It's horrible to watch and makes me swap channels. They won't sell much with theses shouters!

    Gemporia Hosts

    I think maybe he was being dead pan sarcastic. 🤔 I agree. Same here. I think Jeff is the most tolerable when he has a producer to work off. Yes he's definitely at a bit of a loose end without katie there to bounce a conversation off. He seems to be a bit less buoyant on his own. Agreed. Some...

    Gemporia Hosts

    Just wondering out of curiosity If anyone is still watching Gemporia and if so who is their preferred host?

    Merely incompetent or outright lying? You decide...

    It's run by global VGL who own TJC so anything can happen. Massive corporation and given that they aren't very thorough or botherd by ethics in my opinion. They use tactics brazenly like poor presenter acting to try to fool viewers into thinking a producer has made a 'mistake' or there's been a...

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    Totally agree. I think Jeff quite likes the freedom of his late night slots at a weekend which allows him to do his designing work but it is notable that Gemporia, whilst having had pieces designed by other presenters have vetoed Jeff in this regard. But would he really want that anyway? Just...

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    Totally agree. Jeff's shows are the best of what they have and they treat him so shoddily not allowing him to show any jade and barely any pearls. Plus he is on so late it's like they are deliberately dissing him and self sabotaging the company.

    Pink diamonds

    A lot of poorer quality pink diamonds are Faint Pink at best... which is to say so pale they bearly fit into the Pink bracket, so a 9 on the scale. The more pink the the number I think 1 being the most pink. So the scale is 1-9. 1 being very intense through to blush/faint. They are almost...

    New collector, how legit is gemporia?

    I agree but pearls have definitely become less plentiful on the market due to many reasons. Covid caused a lot of difficulties resulting in smaller harvests as most pearls can only be harvested between Jan & March each year. Also Akoya production in Japan has dropped more than 80% in 30 years...

    Lab created diamonds.

    Yes, i have seen it all. Very good series but I'm a bit biased when it comes to anything Frank Dillane is in, ever since I saw him in the first 3 seasons of 'Fear The Walking Dead' There is a lot of interesting facts about how the real life Joan learnt about gemstones and jewellery. My...
