Description
This monograph shines the spotlight on an Art Deco jewelry designer whose name has come to stand for the most dynamic of 20th-century styles - Jean Despres. Many of his designs and drawings are reproduced here for the first time, showing Despres's creative process. Benefiting from a wealth of fine archive material, the original photographs are accompanied by a large number of new photographs taken specially for the book. This sumptuous volume will delight both new admirers and seasoned connoisseurs alike.
