Imperishable Beauty Art Nouveau Jewelry

The authors of Imperishable Beauty: Art Nouveau Jewelry use this catalogue of a small but extremely important American collection of Art Nouveau jewellery to tell the story of the movement and to examine the role of the jeweller within it.The exuberance and sensuousness of the style and the choice of motif come across strongly in both essays. Included are works by the renowned René Lalique, Philippe Wolfers and Henri Vever.
