The first book ever devoted to the story of Miriam Haskell, one of America's most distinguished fashion jewelers, this reference features 200 jewelry pieces from collections in the U.S. and Europe, specially commissioned color photos, numerous contemporary magazine and advertisement extracts placing jewelry in the context of its era, and the history of a major costume jewelry house and its product. This is a significant reference volume for all who are interested in period jewelry. 250 photos, 200 in color.

This is the first book completely devoted to the story of Miriam Haskell, one of America's most distinguished fashion jewellers. Over 200 examples (bracelets, necklaces ,brooches, earrings and parures) from the most significant European and American collections illustrate the styles of the small number of designers who were associated with the House. Creativity, technical skill and the varied sources of inspiration have made this jewellery the undisputed stars of period jewelry collections.
This will be a work of reference for collectors of period jewellery, for fashion designers and for everyone who is interested in the decorative arts.
The author, Deanna Farnetti Cera, now lives in Milan and has written extensively on modern jewellery as well as organizing several major exhibitions.
