Fine Jewelry Couture - Contemporary Heirlooms by Olivier Dupon

This inspirational book features over 35 master jewelry designers, organized alphabetically. Hailing from Australia, Brazil, France, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Russia, Turkey, the UK and USA, they represent a wide variety of approaches, from Aida Bergsens flora and fauna designs, emerald- studded frogs and diamond- encrusted salamanders - through Anabela Chans exquisitely detailed laser-cut brooches of white gold and platinum with iridescent diamonds and natural grey pearls - to Elie Tops yellow gold spheres that are a feat of mathematical precision and ingenuity.
