Sheik Fitaihi Speak

Sheik Fitaihi has played an enormous role in buying jewelry at auctions. This is what he has to say: 'Nothing is forever. Today is for me, tomorrow is for someoneelse. I don't think about my impact on the market. I don't think about others; I concentrate on myself. If you want to be successful think about yourself, not about others.'

He sees the auction house and its offerings as a collection of families. 'When we are working with Christies, hundreds of families are working; when you working with a dealer, you are, working with one family only.'
