What Are Collectible Gemstones? Dr. Eduard J. Gubelin, a pioneer in gemstone research, elevated gemstone collecting to both an art and a science through his exceptional gem collection and groundbreaking research. Rare and valuable gemstones are prized for their extraordinary beauty, unique characteristics, historical importance, or scarcity and are known as collectable gemstones. Gemstones with historical provenance, such as those once owned by royalty or famous figures, can also be highly sought after by collectors. Collectors are continuously captivated by the timeless allure of collectable gemstones, whether due to their rarity, exceptional beauty, or historical significance. While following the path of ancient civilisations through these precious stones, I sense a deep bond with the wonders of our world. They are beautiful objects and reflections of human history, culture, and accomplishments. They are not just items of beauty, they also hold important historical, cultural, and human achievements, which makes them highly valued in the realm of gemstone collecting. #collectiblegemstone #gemstonecollector #raregems #jewellerydesign #gemstonejewellery #historicgemstones

Elevating Menswear with Eyewear: Frederic Bittner’s Timeless Tribute to Yves Saint Laurent Beauty  In fashion, the smallest details often make the biggest impact.  German model Frederic Bittner opened the show in a gray flannel double-breasted suit, white shirt, and dark tie. The addition of eyewear completed this homage to the 1970s YSL look, accentuating Bittner's features and adding intellectual charm and historical accuracy.  The choice of eyewear in this context was far from incidental. Glasses have the power to transform an outfit, offering a blend of functionality and style. 💼 What do you think about the role of eyewear in modern fashion?

Looks Good, Does Good. Gemstones have fascinated humanity for centuries, symbolising everything from love and power to wisdom and protection. Their natural beauty, combined with skilled craftsmanship, creates pieces that are treasured for generations. However, the journey of a gemstone from the earth to a cherished piece of jewellery can have profound implications for the environment and the communities involved in its production. At Gem Experience, we source our gemstones responsibly. This means prioritising fair trade practices, supporting artisanal miners, and choosing suppliers who adhere to stringent environmental and ethical standards. By doing so, we ensure that our gemstones are not tainted by exploitation or environmental degradation. The impact of our ethical practices extends far beyond our workshops. By partnering with fair trade organisations and supporting community development initiatives, we contribute to the well-being of the communities that are integral to the gemstone supply chain. Whether it's funding education programs, providing healthcare services, or supporting local infrastructure projects, we believe in giving back and creating lasting positive change. We are redefining what it means to be beautiful. Our jewellery not only reflects brilliance but also shines with the light of ethical integrity and social responsibility. We invite you to join us on this journey towards a future where every piece of jewellery not only looks good but does good. #gemstones #gemstonejewellery #craftsmanship #jewellerydesign #experthands #jewelleryskills #ethicaljewellry #ethicalmining

Interesting article from Businessoffashion.com by Luca Solca underlying the 2 strategies for Burberry ; either give more time to management and shareholders to push Brand elevation via leathergoods and flagship distribution , or more to a Coach model behind outlets increase, costs reduction especially on creativity and communication and off-price channels exposure increase. Is the recent news of lay-off at Burberry is a signal for a strategy change towards a ‘British Coach’ ? Let me know what do you think !
