About the ING
Founded in 1963, the National Institute of Gemmology has an exceptional collection of over 27,000 stones and laboratory equipment that allows learners to face the reality of the material. This is why the most prestigious jewelry houses such as Mauboussin, Cartier, Van Cleef, Gucci, Vuitton, Hermès, and many other professionals such as Didier Guérin, Histoire d’Or, Crédit Municipal have called upon the ING to train their staff.
During its 48 years of existence, the ING has trained several thousand gemologists and saw its efforts rewarded by obtaining the certified title in 2010.
