Graff: The Most Fabulous Jewels in the World

This is Graff's collection of some of the most precious diamonds ever to be discovered. The book is huge: it has a very elegant size, the photos are very high quality and the treasures look quite sublime and alive. I am amazed how masterfully these professional photographers can manage to capture diamonds nowadays. They look phenomenal and so very crisp. You get to see every facade and edge, which is undoubtedly helpful to see some of the science behind it all... or just to appreciate their beauty in these diamonds' totality.Check it out if you admire great diamonds, the art and science of diamond cutting and shaping, and the Graff heritage in general. If anything, it also looks extremely stunning as a coffee table book.

I purchased this book new from a third-party seller, and boy, am I glad I paid less than $30. At that price, it is definitely worth having, but if I had paid over $100, I would be returning it for sure.Was any of the photography commissioned for this book?! As far as I can tell, there are mostly shots from advertisements and publicity releases.Buy this if you can find a deal on it, and want to have a quick reference to some of the amazing pieces that Graff has created; just don't expect it to be an exhaustive look at their work, or to provide more than superficial information about their operation.

Very large stain right on the cover of this book.

Simply magnificent! Very familiar with this firm and it's products, having been in the high-end of the jewelry and diamond industries for 30 years!

The photos were fabulous the jewels breathtaking but not enough information on the man himself or the company. More like a photo album of the rich especially the sultan of Brunei.
