Hardcover, 239 pages, English, 290 x 250 mm, very richly illustrated with coloured illustrations, , Fine copy. ISBN 9780810933941. This is a complete catalog of the 259 golden artifacts excavated by Heinrich Schliemann when he identified the site of Troy in the late 19h century. Once housed in the Berlin Museum, this fabulous treasure was taken by the Soviets when they reached Berlin in 1945, and eventually consigned to the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. The text contains a biography of Schliemann, the history of the archaeological dig, and a historic and descriptive commentary on each object, including finely wrought golden bowls, jewelry, figurines, hammer-axes, and crystal lenses. Introduction by Irina Antonova. Translated from the Russian by Christina Sever and Mila Bonnichsen.

It is in the heart of our planet - at a depth of more than 200 kilometres - exposed to extremely high temperatures of 1,700 to 2,500 degrees and to a pressure of 75,ooo kilograms per square centimetre - that miniscule carbon crystals, 'diamonds', are born. It is a long road from the rough, often ugly and misshaped stone extracted from the soil to the polished, dazzling diamond it is converted into. This slow and delicate transformation is carried out by many artisans and professionals. Eddy Vleeschdrager relates the exciting road this stone has to travel from mine to jewel.

Hardcover 316 Seiten, 22,5 x 17 cm, 275 Abb. in Farbe. Leinenband. Englisch / Niederländisch. ISBN 9783897904699. Evert Nijland (geb. 1971) zählt zu den führenden Schmuckkünstlern seiner Generation. In den 1990ern im Umfeld von Konzeptkunst und Minimalismus an der Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam ausgebildet, entwickelte Nijland einen üppigen, überbordenden Stil, der sich (kunst-)historischer Quellen bedient und doch radikal in der Gegenwart verankert ist. Die Zusammenarbeit mit verschiedenen Kunsthandwerkern ist für Nijland charakteristisch. Sie ermöglicht ihm die Einbindung so unterschiedlicher Materialien wie Porzellan, Holz, Textil oder Stahl in seine Werke. Insbesondere sein Einsatz von Glas im Schmuck ist beispiellos. Die Publikation bietet in opulenten Aufnahmen einen aufregenden Überblick über 20 Jahre Schmuckschaffen von Evert Nijland. Ein Highlight sind spannende Bildmontagen, in denen der Schmuck von Werken der abendländischen Kunst überlagert wird, die Nijland als Referenz und Inspirationsquelle dienen. Evert Nijlands Arbeiten sind in führenden Museen weltweit vertreten, darunter das Nationaal Zilvermuseum, Schoonhoven (NL), das Musée des Arts décoratifs et de la Mode, Marseille (FR), das TextielMuseum, Tilburg (NL), das MMK Museum, Arnhem (NL), CODA Museum, Apeldoorn (NL), mima, Middlesbrough Intitute of Modern Art (GB), Collectie Marjan en Gerard Unger, Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (NL), Glass Museum, Tacoma, WA (US), The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (US), the Museum of Arts and Design, New York (US), Study Collection Royal College of Art, London (UK), Victoria and Albert Museum, London (UK), Mint Museum of Crafts & Design, Charlotte, NC (US), Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (NL), Schmuckmuseum Pforzheim (DE).

softcover XX-178 pp. ill. nieuwstaat text in Dutch. ISBN 9789042926158. In Zilver in Antwerpen. De handel, het ambacht en de klant belichten acht bijdragen de edelsmeedkunst telkens vanuit een ander perspectief. Waar kwam het zilver vandaan en welke zilversmeden en -handelaars uit de Lage Landen waren actief op het Iberische Schiereiland en in de Nieuwe Wereld? Welke munten werden er geslagen in de Antwerpse Munt en hoe werd zilver ook in textiel gebruikt? Waar was het ambachtshuis van de Antwerpse edelsmeden, hoe was het ingericht en wat rest er nog van? Welk zilverwerk hadden de Antwerpse burgers en welke schilders en beeldhouwers werkten samen met de Antwerpse edelsmeden? Waarom had de medische vakliteratuur zoveel aandacht voor de zilveren kaakprothese die Jan Pieter Antoon Verschuylen voor een Franse kanonnier maakte, die in 1832 in Antwerpen bij een bomexplosie verminkt werd? Dat er na de onafhankelijkheid van Belgie weer een grens was tussen beide landen vormde voor deze edelsmid, die heel wat kerkzilver naar Nederland exporteerde, geen probleem. Aan een klant die bij hem een gouden monstrans voor Amsterdam bestelde schreef hij: ?Mijn advies is altoos voor de minste koste van ze te laeten smockelen?.
