MODERN GUIDE TO VINTAGE JEWELLERY (HB)

This guide takes the reader on a tour of the finest jewellery from the Art Deco glamour of the 1930s through the Retro pre-war and war years, the cocktail suburban lifestyle of the ’50s, the rebellious ’60s, the glitter and glamour of the ’70s disco era and, finally, to new ‘career-woman’ style of the ’80s. Through each period, jewellery historian and collector Beth Bernstein shows how to identify the most popular gemstones, materials, styles and collectible pieces on the market today, as well as divulging invaluable information from dealers and experts.
