About the Cover


Color was the watchword of the ‘90s in gems, jewelry, new synthetics, and even treatments (which saw the introduction of decolorization in diamonds). This photo includes some of the newest and most popular colored gems of the decade, as well as a contemporary yellow and “white” diamond necklace set in the decade’s most prominent jewelry metal, platinum. The necklace contains 25.85 ct of radiant-cut and round brilliant diamonds. Loose stones from the collection of Michael M. Scott; photo © Harold & Erica Van Pelt—Photographers, Los Angeles. Necklace courtesy of Louis Glick, New York.
