Synopsis
This stunning, glamorously designed survey highlights the artistry, expertise, and inspiration behind the work of today's most fascinating and influential jewelry designers. Breaking out of the rarified world associated with fine jewelry is a set of contemporary designers who combine traditional skills with fresh vision, transforming artistic inspiration into wearable art. Boundless creativity and a sense of playfulness distinguish these jewelers from the pack, skills that result in pieces that are breathtakingly sophisticated and deeply rooted in each designer's singular aesthetic. Focusing on seventeen modern masters from around the world, Jeweler reveals the unique ideas, intricate processes, and inspiration that go into their work. Curated by Stellene Volandes, editor-in-chief of Town & Country , Jeweler introduces readers to designers like the Hemmerles, a jewelry dynasty known for molding materials like copper and aluminum into one-of-a-kind collectibles; Wallace Chan, the Hong Kong wizard of stones whose patented techniques dazzle the mind as well as the wearer; Elena Votsi, an Athens jeweler who remade the Olympic medal, and whose bold metallic pieces are like wearable sculptures; and Lauren Adriana, a London wunderkind poised to become the master of her generation. Through Volandes's vivid profiles and breathtaking images of each jeweler's work, readers are immersed in the passion and craft that make each one a visionary. Jeweler is a stunning portrait of this fascinating niche of design, anointing the designers of today who are making the collectibles of the future., Going beyond the jeweler monographs and books dedicated to antique and historic jewels already on the market, this book provides a stunning survey of todays most daring and influential jewelry designers. It is also the first jewelry book to demonstrate the importance they play in the fashion world by way of exploring their inspirations, processes, and breathtaking final products. Jewelry will appeal to both fashion and design crowds and is an essential book for any aspiring jewelry designer or stylist. A lavishly illustrated survey of the most luxurious and creative contemporary high-end jewelry designers from around the world that highlights the artistry, technical expertise, and logic that goes into the craft as well as the inspiration behind these stunning works.
