Although Damon Washington majored in art, it was football that first put him in the spotlight. He excelled as a running back, first for Colorado State and later for the New York Giants. As a player, he began to collect jewelry, marveling at the detail and craftsmanship concentrated in something so small. After he left the NFL, he decided to turn his interest in jewelry into a career, studying jewelry design at the Gemological Institute of America. Today this renaissance man has his own jewelry design company, called Damon 2029, after the numbers he wore on the field. He is often inspired by artwork, his own or the work of masters, and colors and emotion help drive his design process. His jewelry has a bold flair worthy of his warrior spirit. As you might expect, Damon has designed jewelry for many NFL players, including Ron Dayne, Clark Haggans, Travis Laboy, James Farrior, Ron Dixon, and Thabiti Davis.

If creativity is what you desire, then a tourmaline gem is perfect for you. Known as the gem of intuition, artistic expression and creativity, tourmaline is popular because it comes in so many colors and combinations. One popular color of tourmaline is pink. Pink tourmaline was an obsession of the last empress of China, who slept on a pink tourmaline pillow to inspire good dreams. The empress also initiated a tourmaline "rush" in the San Diego area at the turn of the century when she purchased tons of California pink tourmaline for her court. The most important value factor when buying pink tourmaline is color. The more intense the pink, the more valuable it is. Gemvara's pink tourmaline is a bright, warm pink that complements both warm and cool colors. A well-cut tourmaline is also important because it will dazzle in the sunlight. Today, most pink tourmaline comes from Brazil. Tourmaline is the October birthstone and the 8th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality pink tourmaline will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine pink tourmaline jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
