Gilbert Albert ''The Visionary Alchemist'' by Jean Anouilh
masterly, presence, the art jeweller Gilbert Albert, artist-craftsman in the noblest sense of his trade , occupies an outstanding position in the spark, ling world of his profession. Bursting with imagination, he creates jewels and objects that are unique throughout the world. He handles the material like a visionary alchemist, he hammers gold in a virtuoso way, shapes precious metals and mixes rare stones in an unconventional blend made of dreams, delicacy and magic.
His kind of art has nothing or little to do with diamonds ... His personality arouses passions. Atypical and talkative, Gilbert Albert is a fervent citizen of Geneva, with a coloured and biting humour and an effusive loquacity, while offering at an times an immense tenderness .
