EDITOR'S REVIEW
If your passion for jewellery lies in the past, you will love Sarah Hue-Williams and Raymond Sancroft-Baker’s new book, Hidden Gems – Jewellery Stories from the Saleroom. Hue-Williams is a freelance gemologist and jewellery historian, while Sancroft-Baker was European Jewellery Director for the auction house Christie’s for over 20 years. Their combined knowledge has created a spellbinding read that captures perfectly how a colourful history or a famous owner instantly make a jewel more desirable, be it a priceless pink Golconda diamond won by a Mughal Emperor in battle or a pearl and ruby necklace that once graced the neck of Marie Antoinette.
