I have been in the antique/collectible business since 1968 with shops in London, England's Antiquarius on Kings Road in Chelsea and Portabello Road in the 1970's. Since 1990 I've been a Graduate GIA Jeweler/Gemologist. Many of my pieces can be seen in Christie Romero's WARMANS JEWELRY (I, II & III) and Ginger Moro's EUROPEAN DESIGNER JEWELRY (1997) to name a few.
