The Triumph of Love. Jewelry 1530-1930

Meer over het boek

The book shows splendid rings, brooches and necklaces, exquisitely worked by master craftsmen with hearts and arrows, intertwined initials, vines, flowers and other symbolic motifs, all showing the special language known to lovers. Most of these radiant jewels also have a fascinating story behind them, and the author tells all that is known about their origin: the giver and the receiver, the designer, and above all the deeper meaning of the piece.
