This is now the original hardback version for sale ( the paperback was sold 8 january).
This beautiful book is in english.
About a hundred years ago, the master jewelers of the Western world began to shed the eighteenth century anonymity under which such artist-craftsmen had generally worked.
The celebrated designers whose jewellry is featured in this book can be instantly identified by their particular interests and discoveries.
Castellani, for example, is known for his nostalgic glances back at Etruscan gold work;
Carl Fabergé emphasized originality of design and the quality of craftsmanship, rather than the intrinsic value of the materials used.
René Lalique was irresistibly fascinated by the strange forms he adapted from nature.
The searching, critical eye of a Cartier or a Boucheron could lend chic to their beloved abstract patterns.
The book has magnificent colour pictures of extraordinary jewellry of gold, silver and platinum, gems cut and polished in every conceivable fashion, and enamels, translucent, opaque or clear.
In fifteen chapters written by leading experts in the field, the world of fine jewelry, including its social, aesthetic and business aspects from around 1850 to our own day, is brought to vivid life.
The jewellers represented are for example:
Fabergé
Cartier
Boucheron
Tiffany
Lalique
Fontenay
Tillander
Bulgari
Van Cleef & Arpels
Verdura
Hancock
