ONE IN A THOUSAND – THE RARE AQUAMARINE RAISING FUNDS FOR A UNIQUE PRISON CHARITY

Here is a rare opportunity to take part in a raffle whose prize is a beautiful £40,000* aquamarine which is multi-faceted, unheated and cushion-cut. The raffle is being held to raise funds for the prison charity Fine Cell Work and as gem merchant Guy Clutterbuck admires the work that they do for prison rehabilitation he has most generously donated this outstanding gemstone.

The winner of the draw on 20^th November not only wins the stone but can also take up an offer of leading jewellery designer Georgina Skan (previously at Garrard and Asprey) to design a setting for the stone. Fine Cell Work is donating £1500 towards the cost of the setting.

The ‘One In A Thousand’ Aquamarine draw will take place on 20 November at a reception at the Foreign & Commonwealth Office. Visit http://www.finecellwork.co.uk for more details about how to buy a ticket and the great work the charity does.

* The gem’s value has been verified by James Riley, the CEO of The Gemmological Association of Great Britain (Gem-A).
