L'École des Arts Joailliers
About this episode

En 2001, dans le village de Dahong, niché au cœur de la province chinoise du Hubei, le Nouvel An lunaire battait son plein. Tandis que les feux d’artifice illuminaient le ciel, une autre série de détonations, plus sourde, plus inquiétante, a soudain résonné dans la montagne voisine… 


Les villageois ont aussitôt compris que des pilleurs de tombes tentaient de passer à l’action, et ils alertèrent immédiatement la police. 

L’emplacement de la tombe était connu de longue date, mais pas ce qu’elle renfermait…  

En pénétrant le mausolée, après l’arrestation des pillards, les archéologues envoyés par les autorités découvrirent alors un véritable trésor, datant de la dynastie Ming. Des milliers d’objets fabuleux en or, en jade et pierres précieuses... parmi lesquelles des émeraudes venues de l’autre bout du monde.  

 

La Voix des Bijoux est un podcast de L’École des Arts Joailliers, avec le soutien de Van Cleef & Arpels.  


Avec la participation de Bei He, historienne de l’art et professeur à l’École des Arts Joailliers.  

Écrit par Martin Quenehen et Aram Kebabdjian, interprété par Pierre-François Garel et produit par Bababam.
