Description

"The Jeweled Menagerie: The World Of Animals In Gems" 2001The depiction of animals in art goes back to prehistoric cave paintings; and the early history of jewelry, from ancient Egyptian scarabs to Renaissance pendants, shows abundant examples of animal imagery. In the nineteenth century a new group of designers, seeking to satisfy the growing middle class's appetite for jewels, revived the Egyptian and Etruscan styles. Animals of all sorts were incorporated: birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, and fish.

The depiction of animals in art goes back to prehistoric cave paintings; and the early history of jewelry, from ancient Egyptian scarabs to Renaissance pendants, shows abundant examples of animal imagery. In the nineteenth century a new group of designers, seeking to satisfy the growing middle class's appetite for jewels, revived the Egyptian and Etruscan styles.

Animals of all sorts were incorporated: birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, and fish.

Prominent houses such as Fouquet, Fontenay, Falize, Faberge, and Tiffany all produced a spectacular array of animal jewels that are much prized today.

Design developments throughout the twentieth century Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and those that followed contributed impressive animal jewelry, from Lalique's intricate insects to Cartier's panthers, from Boucheron and Van Cleef & Arpels to the sophisticated imagery of Verdura.

This book examines in detail the denizens of this jeweled menagerie.

Great imagination and technical skill have gone into the fashioning of these precious objects, which exhibit not only meticulous craftsmanship but also grace, humor, and refinement.

Gentle,hydrating,and helping even out my skin tone
I’ve been using this Dove Body Serum with niacinamide for just a few weeks, and I’m already noticing a visible improvement in my skin. During pregnancy, I developed some uneven skin tone and dark patches, and this has been helping my skin look more even and healthy. It feels lightweight, absorbs well, and keeps my skin soft and hydrated without feeling greasy. My skin already looks smoother and brighter, and I’m really happy with the results so far. Definitely a great body moisturizer if you’re looking for hydration plus gradual skin tone improvement.

Love love love!!
I LOVE this lotion. It's extremely lightweight, doesn't have a strong odor, and it's actually moisturizing! It's light enough to where I use it on my face as well and it doesn't feel greasy at all. No skin irritation or anything and I have sensitive skin. HIGHLY recommend.

Smoother skin in no time
I’ve been using it daily for a couple of weeks, and I really have noticed that my skin tone is more even. I had some dry patches and areas darkened by the sun, and they look much better now. It’s lightweight, but it provides good hydration all day long. For the price, I feel it’s well worth it.

Did not fade my dark spots.
This is an amazing moisturizer. I love how light and creamy it is. It goes on and absorbs well with a light fragrance. Only 4 stars because it did nothing at all for dark spots. While really sad about that I would buy again as I like it that much.

A bit thinner than expected
This body cream feels nice on the skin and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. It is a little thinner than I expected for a cream, but it still leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. The scent is light and pleasant too.
