I suddenly remembered I wanted to give a shout-out and thanks to Weisser’s Jewelers in Herkimer, NY. They helped me out with a gift recently. Of course I could not make the post till I had actually given the gift, which accounts for the delay.
My late, beloved husband Steven, had given me a couple of wonderful presents from Weisser’s, and I had visited the store myself, so I knew it would be a good place to find a nice present for my mother for her birthday. I walked to North Main Street one Saturday morning and explained my mission.
I looked around, admiring different necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. I hesitated over some rosaries. My mother collects them, so I thought one might be nice. However, I was not sure what colors she has and did not want to give her a duplicate.
I was taken with the Herkimer diamond jewelry, some of which was paired with different months’ birthstones. Ultimately, however, I decided not to go with Mom’s birthstone, emerald, because I thought she wore more blue than green. I picked a beautiful, delicate necklace with a blue stone. Alas, I neglected to take a picture of it. The nice lady offered to wrap it, which I was grateful for.
Mom liked her present, and I am thinking of returning to Weisser’s soon to purchase something for myself. Maybe with a Herkimer diamond!
