“I can easily compare our Gem Lab to and Research Department to a spaceship. We can explore the unknown, we can easily face all the modern market challenges and, most important, win them.”

decisive role in GIG. Here we have widened the range of the Laboratory activity bringing the limits beyond the normal gemological context.”
