The more than 550 pieces featured by 198 jewellers from all over the world break away from the traditional notion of jewellery making to stake out new terrain. They represent a variety of creative approaches and methods, from more traditional to strikingly avant-garde creations, that speak and inspire, embodying all the ingenuity, flair, eloquence, sensitivity and individual freedom of their diverse creators. Some of the earrings are made using unconventional materials like porcelain or plastic while others use classical materials such as gold in ways that provocatively go against the grain of convention, reflecting the artists' personal identity and tastes or containing a subtle commentary on contemporary concerns. Aimed at students, professionals and jewellery lovers, this second edition of the book published in 2013, has a new layout and concludes with a brief description of the careers and webpages of the featured artists.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309963161973,"sku":"9788419220516","price":27.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9788419220516_fd71d631-d66e-4200-85a0-928d124cede0.jpg?v=1786032173"},{"product_id":"9788417412500","title":"New Bracelets – 400+ Contemporary Jewellery Designs","description":"New Bracelets showcases more than 400 bracelets by 200 jewellers, selected from a pool of artists from across the world.
