Summary

As the second millennium approaches, the age-old art of making jewellery is changing. No longer the preserve of master craftsman, who brought passion and skill to their trade, it has become the realm of artists, architects and even poets. This title offers an insight into the future of this art, with descriptions of the various schools of the worldwide styles of each designer.
