Description
"Beth Bernstein's Modern Guide to Vintage Jewellery takes us on a colourful tour through different jewellery styles from the 1930s through 1980s." - The Jewellery Editor
"... this essential style guide serves as both a primer for those new to the vintage category as well as a collector's companion for passionate fans of say, 1930s Belperron, midcentury David Webb zebra bangles, or the Van Cleef & Arpels zodiac charms of the 1970s." - Gem and Jewel
The Modern Guide to Vintage Jewellery takes the reader on a tour of the finest jewellery from the Art Deco glamour of the 1930s through the Retro pre-war and war years, the cocktail suburban lifestyle of the '50s, the rebellious '60s, the glitter and glamour of the '70s disco era and, finally, to new the 'career-woman' style of the '80s. Through each period, jewellery historian and collector Beth Bernstein shows how to identify the most popular gemstones, materials, styles and collectible pieces on the market today, as well as divulging invaluable information from dealers and experts.
The book also features stars from Hollywood's Golden Era and beyond, and the renowned jewellers who designed for them and became legends in their own right. Whether you are a novice or consummate collector, a starter vintage dealer, shop owner, burgeoning historian or student, this book is a must-read for all enthusiasts of vintage jewellery.
