[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) The vast majority of the recovered items have come from Danish gemstone dealer Dr Ittai Gradel, who first alerted the museum to the thefts in 2021. Is it me or does it make it sound like they have so much shit they didn't even realize they were gone? Side note though, those look beautiful. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world [S] 2 points 2 years ago yeah. They aren't "displaying them for everyone around the world" they're hoarding them in basements and taking them out every once in a while. permalink fedilink source parent
