Fantastic selection! I was doubtful of advertising but there really was something for everyone---a large variety of everything--original designs, silver, gold, paltinum, beads, loose gems and stones, findings, costume, classic, fun, ethnic, etc., etc, etc. Really, something for everyone, no matter who you are or what you like!!!

I try to make it to the Gem and Jewelry Show every time it's at the Dulles Expo Center. There's a huge variety -- diamonds and fine jewelry, sterling silver, beaded jewelry, and tons of supplies for jewelry making. I'm more of a beaded/sterling kind of girl, and I always find a great selection at VERY reasonable prices. There are some vendors that I make sure to visit each time. It's a great place to buy gifts, also. I definitely recommend going!
Sundays tend to be less busy, and lots of vendors discount items on Sunday because it's the last day of the show.

There is a wide array of beautiful jewelry at this event - everything from diamonds to stone beads to jewelry making supplies. I think it might be best to go on Sunday, as many vendors sell items for "50% off." I actually went all three days and enjoyed it.
