Since its formation, 4.6 billion years ago, the Earth has produced an incredible diversity of rare minerals, coveted for millennia. At the National Museum of Natural History, these became objects of science from the 18th century. Since then, minerals and gems have proven to be a source of inspiration for scientists and jewelers around the world. Paris hosts some of the most beautiful gems between the Latin Quarter and Place Vendôme. The treasures of the Museum's collection - rarely exhibited or recently rediscovered - establish a unique dialogue with the Van Cleef & Arpels high jewelry house. The two institutions invite us to share their history, their expertise and their know-how through an exceptional selection of minerals and remarkable creations. * Coming from Smoke & Pet free home
