		<description><![CDATA[When the weather outside is frightful, or the crowds wholly horrific, you can do your Christmas shopping with the click of a mouse. Seems easier right? But then you consider the more than 5,000 items in the Apples of Gold jewelry collection and suddenly the mall is looking a little more inviting. We hear you. So we had the idea to create a few pages of special jewelry items that make great gifts. We call this section “Jewelry Gifts.” Browsing these pages will allow you to see our most present-ready pieces or help fuel your imagination to do a little more focused searching. These pieces range in style and price point—there’s a little something for everyone. For example, the Byzantine Bracelet shown above is the perfect choice when you need the perfect gift. This piece, crafted of 14k gold is heirloom quality—sturdy, durable, and with a beauty that is designed to last for generations. The classic, intertwining pattern appeals to women of all ages. Simplify your Christmas shopping—browse Apples of Gold Jewelry Gifts!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was speaking with my son this morning, and among the various things that he hopes to be–such as a Lego-engineer and/or a farmer (after watching episodes of Little House on the Prairie)–we got into talking about religion in the workplace, and how that mentioning Jesus or promoting God in most companies is not tolerated. One of the advantages of owning your own business, I told him, rather than working for a big company, is that you can talk about God freely. Most companies, when it comes down to the bottom line, are there to make money. We are not exempt: that is our goal also. But not at the cost of sacrificing our underlying values and beliefs. This includes our spiritual views as well as the ethical way in which we approach our product selection, pricing models, and customer service. We place Scripture on our website, I told him; and even our company name, Apples of Gold, comes from the Bible, from Proverbs 25:11: &#8220;A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold, in settings of silver&#8221;. The verse continues: &#8220;Like an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold is a wise rebuker to an obedient ear&#8221; (25:12). We believe that our name, Apples of Gold, accurately embodies our line of work; the jewelry reference is clear, and it allows us to glorify God in what we do and to be reminded daily that we must serve our customers with honesty and integrity. How do you feel about companies and employees promoting their beliefs in the workplace? How do you feel about the Apples of Gold name?]]></description>
