About the Item

This book is a monograph on the work of this very individual and very stylized goldsmith/silversmith whose main body of work (so far), has spanned the last third of the 20th century and just into the 21st century. He uses precious metals, mainly silver and gold but he also uses vermeil, which is the gilding of sterling silver with gold by electrolysis, together with precious and semi precious stones, his favorites seem to be lapis lazuli, ivory and rock crystal. His creations are mainly jewellery, Precious objects (Objets de Vertu), Ceremonial Swords and Religious Objects. 191 pages with text in French, beautifully illustrated with color and black and white photographs throughout.
