Stunning STONES
The 2005 AGTA Spectrum Awards
Colorful and dramatic prizewinning gems and showcased in the annual Spectrum Awards and Cutting Edge competitions held by the American Gem Trade Association.

These natural colored gemstone beauties certainly fit the bill.
This year’s awards will be presented during the AGTA GemFair, to be held February 2-7, 2005, at the Tucson Convention Center in Tucson, Arizona. Winning entries will be displayed during the show and recipients will be recognized at a dinner dance and awards gala on February 5.
