  • Summary

  • Minerals, masterpieces of the natural world that include precious gemstones and some of the rarest substances on earth, have been coveted and collected by royal enthusiasts and other elite members of societies throughout history. Today these natural wonders are sought after by a much wider range of collectors. From prominent museums to high-net-worth individuals and celebrities, mineral specimens can be as highly prized as art and antiques, or like fine wines and vintage cars.


    If you have a keen eye for colour and aesthetics and an appreciation for some of the rarest and most beautiful objects on earth – or just a passing interest in one of the most rapidly growing and appreciating fields of collecting – then this presentation is for you.


    Please join moderator Fatema Ahmed from Apollo magazine, along with panel members Joel Bartsch, Daniel Tranchillo and Alan Hart – a museum director, a leading international dealer and an expert in the science of mineralogy and in collection development, respectively: three figures who are at the forefront of a resurgence in collecting and investing in the finest natural gems and crystals that nature has to offer.
