About JEAN SCHLUMBERGER (from the dustjacket flap):

******Exotic flowers and whimsical creatures come alive in the fancy jewels of renowned designer Jean Schlumberger, b.1907 d.1987. As one of the twentieth century's most influential jewelry designers, Schlumberger electrified jewelry lovers around the world with his extravagant, gem laden designs of plants and animals. He made everyday objects such as flowerpots sparkle and flash with emeralds and amethysts, while diamond studded seahorses became chic accessories.

The Jewels of Jean Schlumberger presents a broad range of Schlumberger's work, from his early designs for couturier Elsa Schiaparelli to his famous creations for Tiffany & Co., where he worked from 1956 until his retirement in the late 1970s.******
