Carnelian Energy

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

carnelian ringCarnelian is a beautiful vibrant, orange gem that evokes images of sunshine, summer and definitely energises the wearer. Looking out of the window with the Cape Town winter in full blast, I decided to add a new category of jewellery to our online shop that focuses on carnelian.

Have a look and energise yourself…

Its Party Time!!!

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

I keep counting backwards to see if it is actually that long already - but it seems to be true:

 ANPA celebrates FIVE YEARS in Kalk Bay.

I think its reason enough for a ‘lekker’ celebration. First of all we  decided to turn the first August weekend (2nd & 3rd August) into a SALES weekend which means that during this weekend a big selection of jewellery will be marked down drastically, make sure you pop in @ any time SAT 10h00 to 20h00 and SUN 10h00 to 17h00.

Secondly we are planning a festive get together at the shop with live music, finger foods, bubblies and, and, and…, starting @ 16h00 on Saturday.

We are looking forward you joining our anniversary celebrations – make a note in your diary right now!!!

Whale Season is upon us

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

Yes, quite right we are spoilt, having an excellent ocean view from the shop - this time of the year it gets even better… Today we had the first whale sighting of the season. Three brydes whales right next to each other came cruising past. Maybe only 50 metres away from the shore. Generally we get southern right whales in the bay so it was a real treat to see brydes whales that close. Wow, were they gorgeous!!!

@ A Moonstone Mine

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Sri Lanka is famous for many beautiful things inclusive tea but we come here for the tropical climate, a good holiday and gems of course. Specifically moonstone and sapphire are two of the many gems to be found on the island. We were lucky when we discovered a working mine - not one of those set up for tourists. I always picture mining lands to be barren and was pleasantly surprised by the scenic, lush surroundings as we were coming closer. The entrance, building and whole setup of the place did away with any other ideas I had about moonstone mining. A small palm leave hut with simple machinery but see for yourself:

Jewellery Exhibition in Johannesburg

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

We are just about ready, well maybe not quite :-), but nearly there, to invade Johannesburg with a bling sensation. The expo will take place at the 10 Bompas Hotel, 23. April 08. Check the events page on this website for further details.

Please contact us now if you have not received an invitation or  need additional ones for family and friends. Should you want us to bring anything specific to Johannesburg, it would also be now or never to contact us about it.

 We are looking forward to the day and to see all our Gauteng clients….

Opals

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

We had quite a few requests for opals in the past, or that is Andreas’ excuse for having acquired a few Australian opals.

Anybody who is interested can have a look at them in Kalk Bay - Andreas will gladly show them to you and give you all the ins and outs…
