Show & Lecture Schedule title image

Shows

Pala International participates in several gem and mineral shows every year. At these shows, you will have a chance to see our full range of fine gems and mineral specimens, including Burma ruby, Burma sapphire, rubellite tourmaline, demantoid, alexandrite, spinel, and others too numerous to name. From the common to the obscure, we have it.

Lectures

Because of our expertise, members of Pala’s staff are often called on to give lectures. We have lectured across the US, as well as in Canada, Australia, Thailand, Europe, and elsewhere.

Video Available: A 74-minute videotape of the 2004 Westward Look Show panel discussion, featuring Pala International President Bill Larson, is still available.

Among the many shows and trade events we attend during the year, the most delightful are those which allow us to spend fun time with our clients. At the 2004 AGS Conclave in Atlanta, GA, Pala’s Gabrièl Mattice enjoys the company of some of our clients.

   These events are a great way to meet the people we speak with on the phone every day. We look forward to meeting you at our next show!
