MUSEUM EXHIBIT

GIA’s award-winning research journal, celebrates 80 years of excellence
in 2014.

Over these eight decades, G&G has been a critical resource for the gem and jewellery industry. Groundbreaking articles on diamond grading appeared as early as the 1940s. Through the Lab Notes section, GIA gemmologists reported on the latest treatments and synthetics, which helped to protect the trade and the public.
