Description
The Spirit of Chaumet offers an unparalleled journey into the world of the exclusive Parisian high-jewelry house, showcasing its key creations, stylistic principles, and multifaceted history going back more than 240 years.
A rare chance to discover the behind-the-scenes life of a high-jewelry Maison and to admire seldom seen, one-of-a-kind creations, this volume is organized thematically, exploring twelve (in homage to the house's historic address: 12 place Vend�me) core elements of Chaumet's identity and creativity, from its Parisian roots to its cosmopolitan sources of inspiration and clientele, its iconic tiaras, inventiveness, arresting use of color, playful spirit, nature-inspired designs, and more.
Authored by jewelry expert Gabrielle de Montmorin and benefitting from generous access to the Maison's archives, this book is a definitive record of one of the world's great jewelry houses, whose loyal clients have included Marie Antoinette and Empress Jos�phine.
With 450 beautiful illustrations, The Spirit of Chaumet will be a must-have for lovers of jewelry and luxury the world over.
