Constantin Wild launches his book ’The Value of Colours

September 2011

’The Value of Colours’ is the motto of the family enterprise W. Constantin Wild in Idar-Oberstein (Germany). It is also the name of the book which Constantin Wild, who runs the company, founded in 1847, will be launching on Monday 19 September at the Jewellery & Gem Fair in Hong Kong.

Constantin Wild narrates the history of some very special gems. The qualified gemmologist tells of experiences involving all aspects of these coveted coloured gems, shows his favourites and explains the fine art of gemstone cutting.

The book is illustrated not only with pictures of gemstones. Wild has also collated magnificent landscapes from many of the places where gemstones are found, old photographs and engravings, and complemented them with photos of his own. The German edition entitled ’The Value of Colours – Im Bann der Edelsteine’ will appear prior to the Intergem trade fair in Idar-Oberstein at the end of September 2011.
