WWW Jewelry 2009

Now this was a learning experience. Traveling first to a local high-end jewelry company, we saw how the hollywood elite get their jewelry done. Several pieces in production that are apparently on order for a famous Hollywood celebrity. We won’t divulge who, just in case the information is confidential, but you might pick them out in the photostream and can try to guess who they would suit:)

At the same shop, we watched as Nokia’s single worldwide order for engraved phone covers (200 total, in gold, we were told) was being prepared. The price wasn’t openly discussed, but there was loose talk of $3,000 for the stainless models (more of these than the gold). Do the math…

And finally, it was off to Po-Chung Art School, where we were treated to a full demonstration of casting Lost Wax in Silver, and got a chance to see what serious art students can create in Lost Wax. Again - absolutely amazing. ISB students have nothing if not food for thought after this trip.
