I had an American customer come in.

She said, I've just bought a $12,000 convictor dress for my daughter's wedding.

She then bought the $58,000 big spider that you were over your shoulder.

And I said, fabulous. You're going to look great.

She came in about six months later.

And she said, I am never speaking to you again.

I said, well, what's the matter?

She said, not one person mentioned the $12,000 dress.

All they were saying was, wow, where did you get that spider?

I said, well, at least they noticed it all.

So, you know, that's...

I'll go with what I love, and if other people love it, they're great.

who do like jewelry, for people who don't realize they like jewelry, and anyone intrigued by

fascinating facts, new ideas and forgotten histories. So join me as I tell sparkly

tales and meet all sorts of people delving into four centuries of jewellery culture and investigate

what's happening now. Hello, thank you for joining me on If Jules could talk.
