Reginald

Let Him Keep the Stones

Take the Stones

If you directly took the stones, you will get a reward from the art curator once you return them to him.

Lend Him the Stones

If you lend him the stones, he wil tell you to come back for it after 1 day. After getting the stones you will still get a reward from the art curator.

Best Choice

The best choice here is to Lend Him the Stones. Even if you have to wait 1 more day to get the stones, doing this will give you the outcome where everyone involved is happy.
