Elie-Anne Caya, a student at Montreal’s School of Gemmology (EGM), has been awarded the Christie’s Prize for Gemmology.

It’s the third time in the school’s history that a student has received the honour.

“It has been 15 years since EGM started offering preparatory classes for the Gem-A exams,” said EGM president and founder, Odile Civitello. “We have had students come here from around the world, and each year our students’ results are amongst the best.”

This award is given annually to the top candidates of the year for the gemmology diploma.

Keith Penton, director of Christie’s, presented Caya with the award at the annual Gem-A graduation ceremony held at the Goldsmith’s Hall in London. Her prize includes £500 worth of gemmological instruments.
