"Quotes" |
NEIL K. DAVEY
"All of the
small pieces within the collection are highly personal whether worn,
handled, or made purely for use. The quality of work, subject to such
very close inspection, rather than for display had, of necessity, to be the
finest possible."

ROBERT HALL
"It is a
tribute to their artistic awareness that they have been able to assemble so
many works of art in these two areas, while maintaining the common bonds of
excellent workmanship, charming subject matter and, above all, that elusive
bit of 'magic' (for want of a better word) that turns an inanimate object
into something special and important."

RICHARD MARCHANT
"The seventy
pendants have another great feature of unity, they all are of outstanding
quality and beauty."

"It has always
seemed to me that a small collection of only the finest pieces makes a far
better art collection than one double the size, but with mediocre pieces
mixed in with the best. I also believe that it is a better accolade to
the fine arts of the nation it represents."

CLARE CHU (Clare Lawrence)
"None of the
dealers that have found pendants for this collection are aware of another
collection, and all of them have confirmed, that good quality pendants are
indeed much harder to find than comparable snuff bottles."
