"Parsley!", he exclaimed. "Who's ever done anything like this? Leonardo da Vinci couldn't have, done it at his prime." A man standing nearby mut tered "There's parsley under them thar gold pints," and Reich stein frowned. "The jewelry is neither spray ed nor dipped, but vacuum va porized with 24-karat gold," he explained. "The process released the inert gases from the sub stance and replaces it with gold.
