21st-Century Jewellery Designers : An Inspired Style, Hardback Book

21st-Century Jewellery Designers : An Inspired Style Hardback

Hardback

Description

High jewellery has entered the 21st century with a spring in its step.

Design has been as diverse as it has been innovative.

The technical advances of the '90s and the new materials being used by this exuberant group of independent jewellers have helped pave the way to breaking down preconceived ideas of high jewellery.

Some enjoy the adventure of finding the rarest of gemstones that speak to them, others seek to tell a tale or relay a secret message to the wearer and thus the onlooker.

They are artists, engineers and adventurers; and, above all, they are passionate about their world, using only the best workmanship wherever it is to be found. From the great JAR, to James de Givenchy and Nicholas Varney in the West, and Michelle Ong, Wallace Chan and Bhagat in the East, 21st-Century Jewellery Designers: An Inspired Style is an exploration into the designers' worlds.

Interviews reveal the designers' inspirations and passions, their signature materials, designing processes, and how their personalities influence their designs.
