Jewellery is my extravagance in life!!!! As a young girl in the 70's, a love affair was thus born for me between myself and jewellery...!!! Just to recall a few sequence of events during my younger days, I got my first job as receptionist/assistant to my cousin who got a tailoring-shop and merchandising store at Plaza Mart, Bacolod City. As a working student, I had to learn how to make my economic monthly budget at an early age as everything when it comes to financial situation was limited. Yet, t'was not a hindrance for me to start with my fascination and devotion in this wonderful world of jewelleries. Aside from my bedspace monthly rental, food and transportation I had to pay, I could still spare few pesos for my remittance to my boardmate who's working in one of many pawnshops in Bacolod City. Buying in installment basis are very common in the Philippines which in a way the best alternative for me then. I would love ransacking the stocks of my boardmate under their remnants sale as for me to look for a bargain and to my reach of my petty budget account.
As I grew up, my passion in jewellery widened and it became a part of my livelihood. To be engaged in antiquity business, encounter with a fabulous jewellery pieces is a magic moment for a simple individual like me!!!!
