Verdura: The Life and Work of a Master Jeweler

Fulco di Verdura was one of the outstanding jewelers of the 20th century. Patricia Corbett expertly analyses and evaluates Verdura's jewelry designs in this lavish monograph, which is newly available in paperback. Wonderful colour photography of the jewelry, as well as atmospheric historical photographs of the celebrities who were his ardent fans, vividly trace his development over more than 25 years of feverish activity and show the great range and irresistible glittering beauty of his highly original pieces.
