Kary Adam
Originally from San Diego, California, Kary Adam lived in the “Gem Capital of the World” - Bangkok, Thailand, sourcing local gem stones and working with local Metal Smiths on his designs from 2001 until August 2015. He now lives and works from Seattle Washington and make frequent trips to Thailand where he continues to source stones and execute most of his custom jewelry work.
His relationship with Gems and Jewelry started in 1997 when he took a trip to Asia and stopped in Bangkok for 2 weeks. While he was there, he bought a 23kt Thai gold necklace, something he had wanted since he was 14 years old and seen at a gem show in San Diego. On his first day back to work from that Asia trip, seven co-workers asked him to sell them his gold necklace. This gave him the idea that he should supply them with what they had asked for. Three months later he was back in Bangkok and bought more Thai Gold Jewelry and several loose Sapphires. This led to several years of traveling back and forth, buying and learning about gemstones and gold, designing and having jewelry made, and selling the jewelry he had made in Bangkok back in the USA and the UK. In July of 2001, he moved to Bangkok to study Gemology graduating with a degree in Gemology from the Asian Institute of Gemological Science. He also taught gemology classes for 2 years before focusing only on design and production. He continues his passion for designing Unique Beautiful Custom Jewelry and he has been doing this ever since.

- Gump's Jade Magnifying Glass and Letter OpenerBy Gump's San FranciscoLocated in Southbury, CTA vintage (circa 1980s) Gump's San Francisco letter opener and magnifying glass pair created in gold-tone non-tarnish metal with hand-engraved floral details and with sleek, beautiful black nephrite jade handles. The pair come in their original pale gold brocade fabric pouch but I do not have the original box. This iconic pair of essential desk adornments are a must for the Gump's or jade collector. My grandmother had this same set plus another with green jade handles. I have always preferred the black handles, though. Classic Gump's, timelessly elegant. Maybe you think you're not a magnifying-kind of person but I would beg to differ. You would be surprised by how useful an optically excellent (which this is) magnifying glass actually is. And you can create completely unique photos...Category
