Vincente Gracia

 These most beautiful and quirky pieces are very desirable. In 2008, an action house in Dubai sold a piece for double the estimate - $100,000. Better start saving those pennies!!!

 Born to a family of jewellers, in the Spanish city of Valencia, Vincente Gracia discovered his passion for gems at a young age
