Decade by decade, the lavishly illustrated Vintage Jewellery recounts 120 years of history, from Lalique's Art Nouveau enamelling at the turn of the twentieth century to Cartier's gemstones and Christian Dior's mid-century costume pieces to Harry Winston's diamonds. Accompanied by archive images, fashion photography and specially commissioned photographs of period pieces, the most collectible and beautiful bracelets, necklaces, rings and brooches are showcased. An invaluable reference as well as a visual delight of times past, the book explores the key designers and jewellery houses, technical developments and cultural influences that shaped jewellery design. Each chapter begins with a historical introduction to the era. The chapter then develops along themes - such as materials, shapes, advances in technology and information about the gemstone industry. Each decade ends with a 'key looks' spread showing an at-a-glance view of the important designs that defined the era.

Excerpt from Antique Jewellery and Trinkets The favourable reception accorded to the two first volumes of the "Home Connoisseur" Series - Antique Furniture and Old Pottery and Porcelain - assures me that there are many who will welcome this volume, which treats upon a subject which is interesting to every home connoisseur. There is a peculiar charm about the jewellery of former generations, those things men and women have treasured and worn, or fondly handled as having had personal touch with those who died long ago. Many of the curios displayed in drawing-room and in cabinets are relics of the prehistoric dead; objects which although not jewels as we understand them, were the ornaments they wore and the things they reverenced. There is a touch of sadness about the thought of rifling the tombs of past ages, and of looted palaces and homes destroyed; yet all these factors have contributed to the supply of antique jewellery and trinkets now treasured in the modern home. It is in the old jewel-box, however, that there are found the relics of more recent times, and many of the pieces of gold and silver jewellery, and flashing stones in their quaint settings, can be worn to-day - for now is the day of replicas and the reproduction of the antiques of all ages. Happy indeed are those who possess genuine antiques: Careful examination of museum exhibits, the varied assortment of antique jewels in dealers stocks, and those that have fallen under the hammer from time to time, has enabled me to gather much useful information about these curios so varied, the work of man in past ages and of almost every civilised nation in more recent times.
