Before booking, check date, slot, language, minimum age, late-entry and cancellation rules, and accessibility

For visitors interested in craft rather than display alone; languages vary by slot, and the commercial showroom should be judged separately from the tour.

Watch how a facet returns light before the carat and clarity explanation; the terminology becomes easier to place.
