Chapter 520: A Generation Grandmaster
(Today's fifth day broke out, how about book friends add some oil to Xiaobao?) )
Emeralds are the outstanding representatives of the illustrious emerald family. They are produced in extremely low quantities, with only one in every 1 million beryl minerals being emeralds, a millionth miracle of green gemstones, and their price is comparable to that of diamonds.
And the emerald that Wang Hao took out should be one of the top gems on the earth, the turquoise and clear hue is eye-catching, and the full color makes these experienced masters breathtaking.
"God, is this true?" Cartier's jeweller let out a sigh, and there was nothing left in his eyes other than the emerald.
The other jewelry cutter also took a deep breath in amazement, "I've never seen such a good quality emerald!" How can such a wonderful gemstone fit in a small box, and what if it breaks! ”
He had completely ignored Wang Hao's identity at this time, and his angry eyes seemed to burn Wang Hao to death.
Touching his nose, Wang Hao didn't expect that his big swaggering actions would make these simple-minded craftsmen dissatisfied.
For him, this emerald is far less valuable than he imagined, after all, there is a bag of gems in the space ring!
After a moment of closer observation, the director of the workshop, Essiver Gwart, reluctantly stepped back and said, "Sir, this emerald is priceless. If you want to use it as jewelry, you must sign a sky-high insurance contract. ”
"Then sign up. I hope to make this emerald into a very textured necklace. If it can be cut, it can be made into a set of jewelry. Wang Hao opened his mouth and said that he still trusts the big brand Cartier.
The emerald in front of me has a natural pear shape. If it was cut into small pieces, it would be absolutely outrageous, so Gwart immediately refused, saying: "This is a treasure of nature, we will definitely keep it as it is, and come up with the most suitable design for you." ”
Wang Hao groaned for a moment, and he took out an identical small box from his pocket.
All the craftsmen at the scene were dizzy, could it be another rare gem in the box?
Gwart and the others held their breath, their eyes fixed on the edge of the box.
With Wang Hao's hand, the box was opened. The green glow caught their eye, and it was some small irregular emerald, although not as striking as the one just now. But there are so many of them that they should be able to be used to make a perfect set of jewelry.
As the head of Cartier's main store, what kind of gem has Gwart not seen? But he had never seen such a swaggering person, and he didn't take these gems seriously at all.
Someone else has such an expensive gemstone. I can't wait to follow a few bodyguards with me. It is packed in a shockproof, fireproof, and waterproof safety lockbox.
But the young Asian in front of him was in his pocket as if it were an ordinary box of cigarettes. The streets of Paris are not safe now, and there are many thieves. If such an expensive gemstone were to be touched by a thief, it would probably make a huge splash.
Wang Hao didn't like to make such a big fuss, he pushed this small box of emeralds down in front of Gevat: "Then these things should be enough, right?" I hope to sign the contract as soon as possible, can I create the jewelry in 1 month? ”
Gwart swallowed, and he nodded and shook his head, "Sir." These emeralds are sure to make a set of exquisite jewelry that will be passed down through the ages. But one month is too short, and the production time of one of our jewels is six months to a year. A month is too busy. ”
"Such a beautiful gem, don't you want to make an absolute set of fine products? In recent years, Cartier has not produced any well-known jewelry, all of which have been made before. If you can customize it in a month's time, I can allow you to promote this set of emerald jewelry. ”
"Sir, making a piece of jewelry isn't just about setting the gemstone in it. From gemstone selection, design drawings, and wax molds to precious metal casting, gemstone cutting and carving, hand setting, jewelry fixing, and polishing, the process of creating a High Jewelry piece can take months or even years of effort by our entire team. ”
Gwart spread his hands, he felt that a month was really powerless.
Wang Hao didn't want to regress, the wedding would be held in a month, if the emerald jewelry could be matched with Su Jing's wedding dress, it would definitely be a great thing.
At this time, a group of gray-haired elderly people walked in on crutches, and they said in a huff: "I heard that there is a perfect emerald here, can you show us?" ”
"I've been a craftsman at Cartier all my life, and I've never encountered a gemstone of this level. The last time there was such a wonderful emerald was probably in the crown of Napoleon III. ”
"It's worth seeing such a treasure in your lifetime!"
Gwart generously introduced to Wang Hao: "These old men are all our former craftsmen of Cartier, they are all a generation of masters, but they have just retired from the front line because of age, but they are still craft consultants. Can you satisfy their curiosity? ”
"Absolutely." Wang Hao's eyes rolled slightly, and he instantly had an idea.
The gray-haired craftsmen surrounded the table in an instant, and they took out the magnifying glasses they carried with them and began to observe them seriously, and their enthusiasm was embarrassing.
Most of them have been in the business for more than 40 years, and many of the artisan families who have dedicated their lives to this building for generations, the older generation of artisans who have witnessed Cartier's journey in the world of High Jewelry.
What they share is not only their ingenious jewellery craftsmanship, but also an eclectic attitude.
"I have a good idea." Wang Hao opened his mouth and said to Gwart: "Can these masters exert their residual heat, I think they can form a team to design and process these emeralds." ”
With such a perfect gemstone, those craftsmen of the older generation will definitely be tempted, and such a group of grandmaster craftsmen with countless experience can process a unique jewelry in a short period of time.
Gwart originally wanted to refuse, because the energy of these old people was no longer comparable to that of when he was younger, but looking at their ecstatic faces, he couldn't say anything at all.
"I can't guarantee that they will all say yes, or that they will be completed on time. This is something we need to do internally. After all, they are no longer employees of Cartier in the strict sense of the word. ”
Wang Hao nodded, it was definitely the first in the world to let so many grandmaster-level craftsmen help him complete the jewelry processing together.
"Mr. Wang, if you are convenient, you can make an estimate of these emeralds. While I think they're priceless, there's a price scale to have on the mandate agreement. (To be continued.) )
