It all began innocently enough. Zippi, Dan\u2019s wife, was busy in the evenings studying for a Master\u2019s Degree in Sociology, and Dan Shechtman, a postdoctoral fellow, found himself studying stone polishing in the arts center during his free time. \u00a0\u00a0Before long, five pairs of polished stones accumulated. Each pair, a different color. What would he do with them? He found himself attending a silver jewelry making course, from that moment onwards, sensitively and delicately, Dan has been creating and designing jewelry. Jewelry for his wife: only for his wife.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.800000190734863px; text-align: -webkit-auto;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.800000190734863px; text-align: -webkit-auto;\">An exhibition of handcrafted jewelry created by Nobel Laureate Dan Shechtman was displayed on campus.
