5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent photos and text!,
By Mr Frank M. A. Aris (Dalkey / Co. Dublin - Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cartier (Hardcover)
This is the book to have if you're (mainly) interested in Art Deco pieces. The Art Deco was one of the most innovative periods of the 20th century and Cartier really showed the pieces at their best. I love the so-called "Tutti-Frutti" bracelets. Cartier really knew how to use the various cuts to its full potential and set in platina definately had a magical finish. Some pieces have had illustrous owners. When you buy this book, you are almost obliged to buy "Famous Jewellery Collectors", as these two books go practically hand in hand. Most of these famous collectors were very active (in buying) in the Art Deco period.

Absolutely luscious!,
By Sam's human (Washington, D.C.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cartier (Hardcover)
If gems and the fine art of the jeweler are your passions, this book is for you. Yes, it's expensive, but it's worth it. The photos (mostly in color) are utterly sumptuous and the text is intelligent, informative and thorough. All in all, a banquet of elegance and unfailing fine taste.
