Omschrijving
"This exciting new book is an incisive history of the jewelry of our time - from the Art Nouveau creations of René Lalique and Georges Fouquet to the contemporary designs of Arline Fisch, Francesco Pavan, and David Watkins - with particular emphasis on the unconventional jewelry designed during the last twenty eyars. Noted jewelry historian Barbara Cartlidge begins her survey with a discussion of jewelry as it has developed since the turn of the century, telling how it has been made, what it represents, and looking at changes in style as reflected against social and political history. The balance of the book reproduces - in magnificent color - three hundred superb examples of jewelry made in Europe, the United States, Japan, Canada, and Australia and designed by over two hundred artists as diverse as Georg Jensen and Raymond Templier, Alexander Calder and Salvador Dali. Illustrated are the most important, creative pieces, not just those with beautiful stones and elaborate settings. Accompanying each piece is an extensive caption describing the jewelry in terms of its significance for the artist and the degree to which it reflects its era" - book jacket.
