Fossil Safari - Dinosaurs and Fossil Hunting In Morocco
Harry Winston was an American Jeweler better known as the King of Diamonds. He is best known to be the owner and founder of Harry Winston Inc. and has been famous for owning the Hope Diamond, one of the most famous jewels in the world. He has been recorded as having several high profile Diamond ownerships that span for centuries. He had held the said diamond for a decade before he decided to donate it to the Smithsonian Institution in 1958.
He honed his skills in the jewelry business through his father, when he used to work in his father’s jewelry shop at an early age. At age 12, he recognized a two-carat emerald in a pawn shop and immediately bought it for two cents. Two days later, he sold the same emerald for $800.
