Sinopse

There is something magical about earrings - they remain the most demanding and the most rewarding examples of the jeweller’s art. In this volume, as much a romance as a fine piece of art-historical research, the authors trace the history of earrings from ancient times to later periods from the 18th century onwards, when techniques of cutting gemstones were perfected.The great names among the designers and international jewelry houses are all represented - among them Boucheron, Cartier, Mellerio, Van Cleef & Arpels, Verdura, Andrew Grima, Bulgari, Marina B., David Webb, Harry Winston and Graff. Illustrations cover every period and style, from Classical motifs to Rococo flowers to the bold lines of Art Deco creations. This study will be a rich source of inspiration and delight for collectors and fashion lovers, students and designers of jewelry.
