Collecting and Investing in World Class Gemstones
Pala International is endowed with some of the industry’s top consultants and specialists in the world of colored gemstones, with 40 years of observing and experiencing the gem and financial markets as they take their course. This article, by Pala’s Jason Stephenson, is a reflection on that experience: a primer on the “pros” in favor of collecting—from the pros.

In this occasional series, we focus on the artists behind the camera. In our third installment, we feature Thai photographer (and ex-Pala staffer) Wimon Manorotkul, whose image of a hand-crafted amethyst pendant is pictured at right.
See also our first two features, on the work of French photographer Bruno Cupillard and American photographer Jeffrey Scovil.
