Costume Jewelry - Carol Woolton - książka
Producent: Taschen
Explore the dazzling history of costume jewelry through the remarkable collection owned by Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo. In the early 20th century, New York emerged as the hub for paste jewelry design, thanks to skilled artisans who had fled war-stricken Europe to rebuild their craft in the United States. Their talents propelled New York to the forefront of fashion, heralding an era where bold and exquisite bijouterie became accessible to many. This exquisite book, featuring texts by Carol Woolton and Maria Luisa Frisa, who shares her personal reflections on Patrizia and her collection, showcases nearly 600 outstanding pieces from the 1930s to the modern day, now housed at Turin’s Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo. Captured in breathtaking photographs by Luciano Romano, the book chronicles the democratization of jewelry, highlighting how women began to embrace bold accessories as a form of fashion liberation. Beyond their visual appeal, these pieces symbolized rebellion and transformation, adorning the greatest Hollywood icons and serving as symbols of identity and creativity. Delve into the visionary designers and cultural movements of each era, capturing the artistic, economic, and social changes that influenced them. Discover how groundbreaking materials like Lucite and Bakelite, along with the use of vibrant tropical colors, inspired new design trends. Appreciate the exceptional artistry of designers who integrated intricate details and striking motifs into their often avant-garde creations, blurring the boundaries between fine and fashion jewelry and elevating accessories to the realm of wearable art. This book is an invaluable source of inspiration for collectors, designers, and jewelry enthusiasts.
