Thiery Robert on fine gems

[Edward Bristol]

Here is an article in the NYT that I wanted to share.

Especially I loved this part:

“To evaluate any one piece, you need to live with it for at least a day, examining it in the morning, afternoon and evening, under natural and artificial light, to fully appreciate its brilliance.”

So true.

Thank you for sharing that article, Ed. I like this that he said about gems, because it's true: " I realized that they were not toys, but real gifts of nature."
