Tatiana Dorow | Author of Arquivistas

Tatiana Dorow, the author of ARQUIVISTAS & founder of the Dorow Collection, regards the crystals within the collection as time capsules, preserving evidence of ancient geological events. As a tribute to her Brazilian roots, ARQUIVISTAS, the Portuguese word for archivist, was selected as the name of this book. Featuring 150 full-page images, ARQUIVISTAS serves as a comprehensive record of this exceptional collection. The book's foreword, written by Alan Hart, CEO of The Gemmological Association of Great Britain, adds to its uniqueness, making it a distinct gift that rare mineral collectors and enthusiasts will treasure as a valuable addition to their collection.

“One only has to look through the following pages to see that the Dorow Collection is a unique, fascinating and beautifully put together collection. The perfect form of the individual pieces and their features are outstanding. Of particular note is the sheer size of many of these specimens. It is rare indeed to find such beauty in larger size specimens.”
