More about the book

An illustrated survey of comtemporary jewellery and its developments since 1960. It has three major elements. Firstly, it has a display of the jewellery itself, photographed in colour. Secondly, it provides a critical history, tracing the first challenges to traditional forms of jewellery as early as the 1930s but focusing on the inspired use of new tools, new materials and new ideas since 1960. Finally, it has a reference section correcting previous information on the subject, including biographies of over a hundred makers.
