A CHINESE GREEN HARDSTONE BANGLE 8.8cm diameter Condition Report:"6cm inner diameter. Where is the item from? A private client not trade.And is it possible to measure the weight and volume of the item? Both should be easy with a scale glass and some water. Volume is the amount of water it replaces. Unfortunately we do not have a scale glass, so we wont be able to do this for you. However I can give you the refractometer reading of 1.65 - 1.68 which is the reading for jade. It also cannot be scratched with a steel tool. It has a high polish. I have included some microscope photos."

In forming the library on behalf of Grimaldi, Tolomei balanced modern literature with ancient, but provided the works of Greek authors in Latin translation, since Grimaldi did not know Greek.Niccolò Franzese (Niccolò Fery of Rheims), one of three binders working on behalf of Tolomei for Grimaldi (c.1524-c.1612), was a Frenchman active at Rome, whose work there played a role in popularising Parisian design. He was binding books for the Pope's private library by 1542, worked for the Vatican from 1549, and in 1556 was appointed by Pope Paul IV to the Vatican staff as its first staff binder, a post he held until his death in 1570-71 (see Hobson, pp. 76ff.).
