簡介

玉一直被中國人所珍視,中國古代玉器的歷史始見於新石器時代初期,而佩戴玉器更是文人雅士品味和身份的象徵。在國外,人們一般認為玉就是緬甸的翡翠,當中以深綠色最為優質。然而,在中國人眼中,卻以白色的美玉為臻品。Lotus Gemology將介紹翡翠和軟玉的不同產地,並向國際買家深入講解中國人稱之為「天堂之石」的美玉。

演講嘉賓

Martin P. Steinbach
Author – ‘Asterism – Gems with a Star’ and
‘Star Gems – A Fascinating World’

Martin P. Steinbach is one of the world’s leading experts on common, rare and very rare gems with a star effect (asterism). He is also the author of two books and a number of articles in trade and gemmological magazines. Already as a teenager, he was searching for crystals in mines and old pits. In Bangkok, during his first travels to Asia in 1982, he became deeply fascinated by the world of gems and became the first German to graduate from the Asian Institute of Gemological Sciences (AIGS). Back in Germany, he moved to Idar-Oberstein, the old gem city, and graduated at the Deutsche Gemmologische Gesellschaft (DGemG) as a gemmologist and diamond expert. In 1984, Martin established his own gem trading and gemmology consulting company. In 2016, he received the title of an “Accredited Senior Gemologist” from the Accredited Gemologist Association, San Diego, USA. Also in 2016, his lifelong dream finally came true: After more than 30 years of hard work, the realisation of his substantial (4kg) book “Asterism – Gems with a Star,“ covering absolutely every known aspect of star gems, was achieved. In Fall 2023, the next ultimate star was born: Martin published his new book, “Star Gems – A Fascinating World.” As a gem dealer, lecturer and avid collector, he has been travelling the world for over 40 years, searching for star stones, particularly to expand his private collection of star gems, one of the biggest of its kind. Martin continuously strives to cultivate new interests and create new collector and trade markets for the captivating 60 or so asteriated gems.
簡介

Gemstones have fascinated humans for centuries with their mesmerising colours and unique optical characteristics. One of the most enchanting phenomena is asterism. Derived from the Greek aster, meaning star, it refers to the appearance of star-shaped patterns that emerge when light interacts with certain inclusions within the gemstone. This natural phenomenon transforms the gem into a heavenly spectacle. Follow the voyage into the fascinating world of stars. They embody a sense of mystery and wonder, inviting us to contemplate the intricate beauty of the universe. Gems with a star serve as a timeless reminder of nature’s unparalleled artistry.

簡介

What is a pearl? What is it made of? Where can we find pearls around the world? During this talk, we will investigate the pearl through both a gemmologist and historian’s eyes.

Thanks to archaeologists, we now know humans started to use the pearl as an ornament since prehistoric times. From the West to the East, the pearl has embodied beauty, power and fashion or even spirituality.

High Jewellery Maisons have used pearls in their creations for over a hundred years, but jewellery designers all around the world, and in Hong Kong, are still fascinated by this material!

Join our two speakers for a journey into the world of pearls, a biogenic gem as famous as it is mysterious. This talk will be given on the occasion of Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong’s main theme, “Orient Odyssey.”
