Guest guest Posted October 21, 2003 Report Share Posted October 21, 2003 Thanks for your reply. I've found another site here that makes the Navratna bracelet: http://www.polestartours.com/navratnas% 20info.htm It appears to be under the direction of Dr Parasar Banerjee. Has anyone heard of him? I looked at the Thaigems.com site but am afraid that I do not know about gems to be able to make the right decisions. Also, Astrogems.com looks like a quality site but is unfortunately a little bit outside my financial range at the moment although they do have many options available for people. Thanks again. > Yes, you can get bangles made by Nick Hodgson of astrogems.com. He > does use man-made emeralds and rubies as a rule, however.
