Conceived like a family album from photos, press clippings, and letters, the book &#8221; Dina \u00e0 la loupe &#8221; (Dina under the magnifying glass) draws the portrait of an unusual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefrenchjewelrypost.com\/en\/business\/billie-hughes-lotus-gemology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gemmologist<\/a>, a sparkling petite woman who has never stopped sharing her immense knowledge. In retracing the life of Dina Level from her birth to the 80s, Catherine Aubert (a former student) transports us into the world of stones. We witness the birth of the Laboratoire Fran\u00e7aise de Gemmologie in the 1920s. We go from her classrooms to the jewelers&#8217; workshops via the rooms of the Cluny museum. We meet characters and luminaries such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefrenchjewelrypost.com\/en\/style\/jean-vendome-a-pioneer-of-contemporary-jewelry-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jean Vendome<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefrenchjewelrypost.com\/en\/mon-agenda\/roger-caillois-image-bearing-stones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Roger Caillois<\/a> and Daniel Alcouffe, director of the department of objets d&#8217;art at the Louvre.
