I remember Scarab from over 25 years ago, as I lived in Nuttall Road Observatory in the 1990s, and the little Scarab shop was a short walk away.  I used to love popping in to this little gem (excuse the pun).  When my boyfriend proposed in 1998 in Riebeek Kasteel (another of our humble, arty, favourite spots before it became well-known) my engagement ring was a plain band that he had purchased from your Obz shop, but I didn’t get a ring made there as I wanted something vintage.  However, my fiancé bought me earRINGs there instead, as an engagement gift.  They’re still my favourite pair!  Over the years I have added a few timeless pieces to my Scarab collection, even when I moved to London. You even made me a custom daisy pendant from your earring collection.; and this was my ‘gold star’ gift when I left teaching at Camps Bay Primary.  Scarab jewellery is pretty much all I love to wear, every day.  The Claremont shop is lovely, but my heart lies with memories of the Obz shop and a very young Janine!  Congratulations on your 30th birthday and jolly well done for all your success.
