If you’re a fan of colored gemstones, and the designers who work with them, chances are, you’re familiar with Robert Bentley Company. (Whether or not you realize it!) Robert has been collaborating with some of fine jewelry’s biggest talents for years, and the brands and designers who work with him are his biggest fans, vacillating between wanting to sing his praises to the moon, and their desire to keep him a precious secret all for themselves. A long-time staple of our Summer show’s AGTA Pavilion, Robert brings his distinctive sense of style, his discerning approach to gemstones, and his humanitarian approach to life, everywhere he goes.
