Now The Recession is Over.........

............and Christmas is on the horizon, it would be a perfect opportunity to seize the moment and experiment with new metals (Palladium, Titanium, Zirconium etc.) in jewellery manufacture. So what is stopping us? Personally I would like to work more with Palladium.

Jumping on the bandwagon with charm bracelets at the moment, I thought it might be a good idea to combine Titanium charms with a Palladium bracelet. Can I get a Palladium bracelet? Can I 'eck as like I can't get a good quality Titanium bracelet either!

You would think that when an opportunity arises with something new on the market, manufacturers would break their necks in an attempt to exploit it and bring out different products - be it a new material or new technology that improves working methods, but no, it doesn't seem to be at the moment - could this be why the Far East Manufacturers are progressing faster?

Rant over for the time being - it's time for bed!
