A crowd gathers at the “Gifts from the Ocean” reception which highlighted an array of rare pearls and celebrated the continuing relationship between the Smithsonian and Buccellati, the jeweler who dedicated the Smithsonian Cup to the National Museum of Natural History. Thirteen years after its initial debut, the Smithsonian Cup is now back on display in the Janet Annenberg Hooker Hall of Geology, Gems and Minerals. (Photo courtesy of Fotobriceno)
