Review

"The name 'Graff' has been synonymous for three decades with some of the most fabulous jewels in the world. Famous and historic diamonds and the rarest of modern diamonds are Laurence Graff's consuming passion; their mystery, their history and their future. Diamonds which he sets into sinuous jewels worn by some of the most renowned people in our world. This book reveals the history behind the mystery as Laurence Graff tells, in his own words, how he became one of the world's most famous jewellers. The book takes us from his early years in London's East End to his travels selling jewels in remote parts of the world in his twenties, to his newest and most beautiful diamond jewels, some of which are the result of collecting exquisite diamonds for many years in order to make a unique piece. We learn of his inspirations, of his adventures all over the world and in doing so, understand the well-springs of his genius for creating fabulous jewels for the most fabulous people in the world."--BOOK JACKET
