THE WINNER OF our January Gem Quiz was Beatrice Matiash, who designs her own jewelry collections under the Tashka by Beatrice label from her studio in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. In addition to being a big fan of kunzite, our mystery stone, Beatrice is an unabashed admirer of INSTORE, which always seems to help in our totally random winner-selection process. Well done, Beatrice, and all those who made it to our Honorable Mentions list below.
