Welcome Inside the Jewel Vault hosted by me, jeweller and gemmologist Jessica Cadzow-Collins, with a guest drawn from the great and the good from across the jewellery world.  In this episode I ask GIA Field Gemologist, Wim Vertriest, to select six pieces from his travels and career in gemmology and put them into a fantasy Jewel Vault, ultimately choosing that one special treasure to keep safe forever.  I hope you enjoy listening!Guest Bio:  Wim Vertriest is manager of Field Gemology at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and Curator of the Institute's Colored Stone Research Collection. Originally from Belgium where he graduated as a geologist, Wim is now based in the global capital of gemstones, Bangkok.  He has first-hand knowledge of gem mining and has travelled, lectured and written extensively on coloured gems. He says he can find his way around the world’s gemstone mining areas just as well as navigating the microscopic internal world of gemstones.  I want to hear from you!  What special treasures would you put into your fantasy jewel vault, and why?  Every so often I’ll compile your stories into a podcast of their own.  To get in touch with me and also to access show notes and images, go to: https://jessicamayjewels.com/podcast/Produced by broadcast &amp; media guru Lizzie Wingham. https://www.tinydinosaur.tv/Engineered by sound genius Asa Bennet. My grateful thanks to you both!
