Stella grabbed her jeweler's loupe and examined the items on the table. Then, she frowned and asked, "Why are there so many cracks on these pieces?"

Maggie pursed her lips and said, "All the items made from the latest batch of raw materials have the same issue.

That is what jewelry enthusiasts care about the most. We can't cut corners just to lower our cost."
