Decade by decade, the beautifully illustrated Vintage Jewellery Sourcebook traces 100 years of design history, from Lalique's Art Nouveau enamelling at the turn of the twentieth century to Christian Dior's mid-century costume pieces to 1980s high-luxe power jewellery.
From 1890-1990, each decade begins with a historical introduction to the era and then offers a "key looks" spread showing an at-a-glance view of the important designs that defined the era. The book concludes with a shopping guide, which offers pointers on sourcing and caring for original antique pieces, and glossaries on notable designers and technical terminology. 十年又十年,精美插图的 Vintage Jewellery Sourcebook 追溯了 100 年的设计历史,从 Lalique 的 20 世纪之交的新艺术风格珐琅到 Christian Dior 的本世纪中叶的服装单品,再到 1980 年代的高级奢华珠宝。
