I don't mean better in terms of monetary value, though that may be the case, I simply mean better in terms of value to me. What I value about something often has little to do with cost and much more to do with how interested I am in it and what pleases me or continues to interest me in it. I have a bezoar stone, probably medieval and it may have been owned by the French royal family at one point. But another piece, a Nottingham alabaster, depicts soldiers asleep outside of the tomb of Christ, at the moment he is resurrected and even if you knew not one thing about it, you'd know it was capturing something, expressing something. So, there is importance in that too."- Robert Kime, House and Garden, 20 August 2022 Bezoar stones are calcified concretions of stone or hair, covered by layers of calcium phosphate and found in the stomachs or intestine of animals including horses and camels. They were introduced into the West from Arabia in the 11th century. and derive their name from the Persian رهزداپ) pādzahr) "preserver from poison". It was believed that scrapings from the stones were an effective antidote to poisons, specifically arsenic, and were also used to treat fevers and prevent miscarriages.
