Greater Houston Better Business Bureau Draws a Winner for 3/4 Carat Diamond Pendant Provided by Jewelry Judge Ben Gordon
HOUSTON, May 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- When the annual Greater Houston Better Business Bureau Awards for Excellence Fund Raising luncheon to benefit the BBB Education Foundation comes around every May, there is cause for celebration - Celebration of the businesses who received award recognition, celebration of a major networking event and in one case, celebration of a diamond pendant winner.
Jewelry Judge Ben Gordon provided the over three-quarter karat pear-shaped diamond mounted in a white gold prong setting on a 14k white gold serpentine chain. Mr. Gordon, a GIA graduate gemologist and jewelry consultant, made it clear that his business does not buy or sell diamonds.
"We advise on the value of precious gemstones and fine jewelry on a daily basis, but it's fun to generate some excitement with a diamond drawing and give away to bring attention to what we do."
The diamond pendant and chain are valued at over $1500 for replacement value. Mr. Gordon explained, "We want to emphasize 'real vs fake' and the idea that each diamond has a story to tell. In addition to the billions of years it takes to form a natural diamond, each piece of diamond jewelry becomes part of a person's history and I like to start a tradition!"
The winner of the pendant was selected in a blind drawing of all names submitted. To assure absolute fairness, Mr. Gordon invited Lilly Chu, staff member of the Better Business Bureau to draw the winning name. The Jewelry Judge is an advocate for fair pricing and full disclosure in the jewelry industry and the BBB Education Foundation sponsors programs to protect consumers from fraudulent practices. "We share the same values," the Jewelry Judge emphasized, "trust, integrity and fair play."
