This review is from: Van Cleef & Arpels (Universe of Design) (Hardcover)
If you are interested in learning about jewelry design, or seeing a comprehensive set of examples of a jeweler's most fabulous pieces, don't bother with this book. The subtitle "Universe of Design" is most misleading as regards this member of the set--I have not read the others, so I can't review them. The book is simply a puff piece about Van Cleef and Arpels: names various members of the family, discusses some ongoing motifs in design, and does a lot of name-dropping. The color illustrations are mostly copies of ad photos. Very skimpy for a "universal" book!

Since I was young, I am interesting in this jewelry maker because my mother tell me that the Van Cleef jewelry is the most beautiful jewelry in the world. So, I would like to know more about this adorable jewelry maker and this book is really fulfill my need. It consist of the history and the technic of them, Van Cleef & Arpel. The book also contain lots of beautiful images of the legendary jewelry product from Van Cleef such as the crown and jewel of the Empress of Iran. This book is a highly recommended book. After you finish you will realize that the value of this book is more than its price on the cover.
