Wearable Art Accessories & Jewelry 1900-2000, Hardback Book

Wearable Art Accessories & Jewelry 1900-2000 Hardback

Hardback

Description

From one-of-a-kind, hand-made fashions, accessories, and jewelry to commercially made, highly decorative items, wearable art has become an important category for collectors of vintage costume and unique contemporary fashions.

This book, with its 575 color photographs, showcases stunning examples of vintage and contemporary wearable art accessories, including close-up shots detailing the intricacy of handiwork involved for the items, a glossary, bibliography, and value guide.

An exquisite assemblage of hats, handbags, scarves, shoes, and jewelry present this compelling topic at its best.

From Art Deco enameled mesh to Judith Leiber jeweled handbags, antique African trade beads to Femo, the examples shown are not necessarily museum art, but are real wearable creations from the antique to the present.

It is sure to delight and intrigue anyone interested in fashion, art, and the unusual and beautiful.
