Reviews
"... Once Upon a Diamond would be perfect for anyone interested in the jewelry collections of Prince Dimitri's family, or for anyone who loves his jewelry designs." —THE COURT JEWELLER
"In this wide-ranging tome, with the subtitle, ‘a family tradition of royal jewels’ Prince Dimitri shares previously unseen family photo albums belonging to the Grand Duchess Elena of Russia as well as a catalogue of the legendary collection of jewels of the leading women of the European and Russian courts. Prince Dimitri’s first-hand knowledge of this fascinating world, offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of the aristocracy on the cusp of the Russian Revolution....Think of it as a ‘who’s who’ and ‘who owned what’ of jewellery during one of the most exquisite periods of jewellery creation with the frisson of a peek behind the scenes." — THEJEWELLERYEDITOR.COM
