The British Museum will exhibit pieces stolen and then found. The Rediscovering Gems exhibition will be open from February 15 to June 15.
It will present a selection of 10 pieces among the hundreds found during the vast search operation. Some 2,000 pieces, including gold jewelry, semi-precious stones and glassware dating from the 15th century to the 19th century AD, had disappeared or been damaged in its collections. The affair led to the resignation of the director of the British Museum, who accuses one of his ex-employees.
