So tomorrow the girls at the restaurant next door and their mom are flying off to Australia to begin the next chapter of their lives, and everyone's pretty emotional about it -- notably me. I'd very much like to present them each with one more, this-time-really-nice gift, but I've made the cardinal mistake of visualizing the thing in my head before confirming that it can be gotten here: Since they're already laden with a lot of stuff, I'd like to get them little sparkly knick-knack / curio sorts of things, like a little tiny ceramic horse or elephant with rhinestones on it. Something that can be tucked in a carry-on, but which still says thanks for these last nine incredible months.

Anyone know where such items can be gotten? Aeon Mall perhaps -- and, if yes, then which store in particular?

for quality gemstones set in silver or karat gold, it is hard to beat david hindley

I just checked their website and the "unique pieces" section fits my description *perfectly* -- so allow me to move the goal posts on you now by asking if there might be some less costly alternatives? By "curios" I was hoping for something more of the glass/ceramic/rhinestone pedigree, say $50-$75 USD? The family would never brook me buying real jewelry for the kids.

sorry, don't know.

David is about the best jeweller in PP as far as i know.
Sends all his stones to a gemlab in TH to verify natural.
Very reasonable prices.

You've been 'dating' a couple of sisters and their mother?

I can't help with the curios question...although I I've seen a Pandora - maybe try there.in case you don't know they sell charms for charm bracelets

nothing says i care like good hard $$ for their future..
