For jewellery historians and design pundits
‘Simply brilliant, Artist-Jewelers of the 1960s and 1970s’ is edited by Cynthea Amnéus with chapters by Adam MacPhàrlain, Ruth Peltason, Rosemary Ransome Wallis and Amanda Triossi. This catalogue accompanies the exhibition of the same name that will travel to Antwerp, Pforzheim and Cincinnati over the next two years. Like the exhibition, the book pays tribute to the rebellious era that rocked the 1960s and 1970s, challenging creativity and stamping its mark on every element of design from fashion to jewellery. The jewels displayed are from Kimberly Klosterman’s private collection, a savvy connoisseur of design who saw ‘big and beautiful’ in this genre at a time when others could only see ‘big and ugly’. The book kicks off this tribute to the artist-jewellers of the era with an essay on the International Exhibition of Modern Jewellery 1890-1961 organised by the Goldsmiths’ Company and the Victoria & Albert Museum. The exhibition and its reverberations are recognised as a seminal moment in this jewellery revolution. The second chapter is dedicated to the transition of the new design wave from individual artist-jewellers to the big-name jewellery houses including Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari and Cartier. Further chapters delve into topics such as the parallels in fashion and jewellery and the changing perceptions to both. An interview with Kimberly Klosterman adds insight into the singular mind of this collector. Each jewel from her collection is catalogued by designer with a brief overview of their careers. A final chapter offers an appendix of maker’s and designer’s marks. Simply Brilliant is simply essential for any jewellery lover and design buff.
