Four or five hours...? Tilting my LCD display back a little helps it look
better IMHO, with a higher contrast.

I'm gonna go less and guess 45 minutes. Looks very real!

Well, this render took,

above fifteen hours to render only first 20% of it (with I posted above), 
and then I was tired of waiting ;) It took so long probably because of too 
high radiosity settings (count=200, error=0.5) and photons count=0.5 milon.

When I correctred settings, I was stoped by a bug (in 3.5 and 3.6) with 
dispersion+radiosity with shows up always when radiosity quality is not 
very high as I discovered, and I will probably pause project until fixing 
this bug.

Also in some parts image needs max_trace_level >= 20 to render properly, 
after all there are 3 gems (+ 3 other + reflecticve floor) reflecting each 
other * 2 lights * 10x10 area_light * 25 dispersion_samples....

I knew you'd be using high quality settings!
