Book Synopsis Suzanne Belperron by : Sylvie Raulet

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suzanne Belperron (1900-1983) is one of the twentieth century's greatest jewellers; she is now achieving near iconic status in the jewellery world and in the auction rooms. Her reputation is as high as that of any of the great French Art Deco jewellers. Amazingly, she never signed her work, considering it so distinctive that it was instantly recognisable. She worked first for the famous firm of Rene Boivin, but in her thirties was encouraged by admirers to set up on her own. She opened a tiny shop on the Rue de Chateaudon and began selling her new designs, which were totally in vogue with modern taste and lusted after by a young and hip generation. It seemed destined that no book would ever be devoted to her work because it was thought that her archive was destroyed in a fire. However, the discovery of that archive has made this book possible. It has revealed all the drawings for her jewellery as well as order books containing a who's who of names of her customers. These ranged from royalty like the Duchess of Windsor to writers like Colette, to famous stars like Frank Sinatra. Her fame spread wide and her pieces were constantly illustrated in magazines like Vogue as well as featured on the big screen in Hollywood movies. A forthcoming sale of a huge amount of her work (Sothebys 2011) has resulted in a great number of exceptional photographs, which illustrate this book. Dedicated to the distinctive and highly imaginative works of Suzanne Belperron, one of the pioneers of modern jewellery ILLUSTRATIONS: 250 colour illustrations

Book Synopsis Jewellery in the Age of Queen Victoria by : Charlotte Gere
Download or read book Jewellery in the Age of Queen Victoria written by Charlotte Gere and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The 'age of Victoria' is taken in its widest sense to encompass jewellery made throughout Europe and America, displayed at the great international exhibitions and distributed through foreign trade, illustrated publications and a burgeoning tourist industry ... The focus of the book is on the attitudes of owners to their jewellery and the symbolic weight that it was expected to carry. Rather than concentrating on the major figures at the top end of the jewellery trade, or indeed offering a chronological survey of the development of jewellery styles and fashions, it is oriented towards the social aspects of owning, wearing and displaying jewellery. The authors show, for example, how novelists use jewellery to add a moral or metaphorical dimension to a character, while jewels depicted in portraits would often have disclosed multiple messages which could be immediately decoded by the viewer. The achievements of science, the fascination with nature and the Victorian sense of humour are all embodied in jewellery. Topics discussed in depth include the importance of jewellery in the life of the Queen herself, jewellery and dress, the language of jewellery, the cult of novelty, the importance of nationalism in the revival of historical styles, and the contribution of archaeological discoveries."--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Designs of Desire by : Timothy Clifford
Download or read book Designs of Desire written by Timothy Clifford and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designs of Desire - Architectural and Ornament Prints and Drawings 1500-1850 is a fascinating survey, which introduces a wide selection of drawings and prints not associated with paintings and frescoes, but with architecture, sculpture, and the applied arts. Explored here is not just the world of elevations and plans for churches, palaces, and gardens, but also designs for temporary decorations for triumphal entries, firework displays, coronations, funerals, and many aspects of pageantry and feasting. Here are drawings for metalwork, textiles, books, ceramics, and glass and, above all ornament designs made expressly as sources for the most sophisticated craftsmen working within these disciplines. This helps to remind us that most artists, until comparatively recent times, were not concerned solely with painting but were commissioned by their patrons to produce designs for a very wide variety of their desires. Artists worked within certain recognisable and identifiable bounds that we now call 'fashion'. The greatest artists explored, developed, and sometimes even invented decorative art forms and styles, and the lesser artists mimicked aspects of their work. Ornament, which has been with us as long as art, was the stylistic common language between the artists and the artefact. This book makes apparent that the language of ornament is strangely limited, and generations since classical antiquity - or even before, in much more primitive cultures - have tended to explore variations on themes rather than to create entirely new languages. Their designs were often astonishingly beautiful and witty, especially when the artists were real innovators. In addition to the designs for architecture, sculpture and ornament are those for metalwork, ceramics, stained glass, textiles and even utilitarian objects such as table cloths and egg cups. The source material provided here would have been used by craftsmen like goldsmiths, maiolica painters, and embroiderers, to guide them in creating the artefacts. The scope of this book begins with Albrecht Dürer and his generation c.1500, and it ends in the mid-nineteenth century. 328 colour & b/w illustrations
