Gems&Jewellery Magazine Unveils Autumn 2019 Issue
The latest issue of Gems&Jewellery, the acclaimed magazine of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain (Gem-A), is now available. This edition is filled with captivating articles, updates, and features from the world of gemstones and jewellery.
Covering the Autumn season, the issue features a striking image of the 'Siren of Serendip' sapphire, set in a white gold and diamond necklace, gracing the cover. Rui Galopim de Carvalho FGA DGA delves into the origins of this magnificent 422.66 carat sapphire and the process of transforming it into a piece of jewellery.
Barbara Kolator FGA DGA DGA shares her exhilarating journey through the Australian Outback, visiting opal mines, sifting for sapphires, and gemstone shopping. The Autumn issue also previews the speakers and talks planned for the Gem-A Conference 2019, an anticipated event in Gem-A's calendar.
Readers can look forward to articles on jewellery designer Sarah Ho's new Full Circle Collection, Belgian jewellery designer Jochen Leeën's career, and a Gem-A student project on 'The Importance of Jade in the Mughal Court'. The magazine also includes a fascinating exploration of the various faces of turquoise in jewellery design history, penned by John Benjamin FGA DGA FIRV in the Gemstone Conversations series.
For those interested in the history of treasures, an article about the Al Thani Collection is featured, highlighting the 400 pieces recently sold by Christie's. The issue also addresses the tortoiseshell trading confusion and provides a quick introduction to the Ivory Act.
Olga González writes about the June jewellery and gem shows in Las Vegas, including Couture, JCK, and AGTA GemFair. Reneé Newman GG proposes a new system '6Cs and 2Ts' for redefining the 4Cs of diamonds in an insightful article. Sanni Falkenberg's award-winning agate 'Moonflower' vase is detailed in the magazine, and the editorial team welcomes ideas for upcoming features.
The Autumn 2019 issue of Gems&Jewellery magazine also provides information about becoming a Gem-A Member and accessing a PDF version of the magazine. In addition, details about the Gem-A Photographer of the Year Competition, including the prizes up for grabs, are included.
