The Process.

I came across this video today, by Fine jewellery house Van Cleef and  Arpels. It is a lovely document about the process of jewellery making. I love the old jewellers bench, it makes me a little envious actually. The precision needed for some stone set jewellery is excruciatingly exacting but if you are fortunate time is suspended, as the attention that must be paid to each process becomes more like meditation.
