Bound, illustrated cardboard and dito dustjacket, 230 x 295mm., 192pp., beautiful and profound illustration in colour and b/w. ISBN 9783897903142. From the latter half of the nineteenth century, Idar-Oberstein developed into an important centre of costume jewellery production. Numerous factories, large and small, produced costume jewellery for the world into the 1980s although today this trade has virtually lost its former significance. During that long time span, Idar-Oberstein was one of the four major German jewellery centres along with Pforzheim, Schwabisch Gmund and Hanau. Idar-Oberstein costume jewellery reflects each of the prevailing fashions in turn: Historicism, Jugendstil/Art Nouveau, Art Deco... to 1960s and 1970s Informel and Zero. Innovative handling of simple (inexpensive) materials soon led to an aesthetic that stood on its own merits, independently of -real- jewellery. Here the Bengel company - with its sophisticated Art Deco jewellery - exemplifies innovative models and business policy. The author was able to study many early documents and photographs in Idar-Oberstein archives as well as pieces of jewellery that, taken together, are highly instructive on the history of costume jewellery. A vivid image of twelve jewellery manufacturers is evoked; proprietors and employees, production conditions, models policy, pieces of jewellery in each period style and worldwide marketing and distribution. Costume jewellery from Idar-Oberstein was not usually marked (stamped) because it was sold through wholesalers; this is what makes attribution to specific makers quite difficult today. The present publication time-travels through a century of creative jewellery production in Idar-Oberstein, which has hitherto remained largely unexplored so that exciting discoveries are still to be made. New book.
192 Seiten, 23 x 28,5 cm, ca. 270 Farbabbildungen. Hardcover mit Schutzumschlag. Text in Deutsch und Englisch. ISBN 9783897903142. Ab der zweiten Halfte des 19. Jahrhunderts entwickelte sich in Idar-Oberstein eine bedeutende Modeschmuck-Produktion. In zahlreichen grossen und kleinen Fabriken wurde bis in die 1980er Jahre hinein fur die ganze Welt Schmuck produziert; heute hat dieses Gewerbe nahezu keine Bedeutung mehr. Wahrend dieser langen Zeitspanne war Idar-Oberstein neben Pforzheim, Schwabisch Gmund und Hanau eines der vier wichtigsten deutschen Schmuckzentren. Im Idar-Obersteiner Modeschmuck spiegeln sich die jeweils aktuellen Trends: Historismus, Jugendstil, Art Deco ? bis hin zu Informel und Zero der 1960er und 1970er Jahre. Der innovative Umgang mit einfachen (kostengunstigen) Materialien fuhrte dort schon fruh zu einer vom Echtschmuck unabhangigen Asthetik.

New Turkish Original cloth bdg. HC. Folio. (34 x 27 cm). Edition in Turkish. 2 volumes set: (808 p.), color ills. Harmony of line and colour: Illuminated manuscripts documents and calligraphy in the Sadberk Hanim Museum Collection. 2 volumes set. Selection of the museum's magnificient collection of illuminated manuscripts and calligraphy. Sadberk Hanim Museum's collection of illuminated manuscripts and calligraphy was created as a result of the special interest in this subject felt by Sevgi Gönül, who herself had an outstanding collection of calligraphic panels. Sevgi Gönül served as Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Museum until her death in 2003 and under her direction the collection was enriched with rare manuscript Korans, prayer books, albums, documents such as imperial edicts, warrants and endowment deeds, hilye-i serif panels and calligraphic wall panels by renowned Ottoman calligraphers. Sevgi Gönül also collected rare examples of Sufi panels. Over time both collections developed and diversified to a noteworthy degree. Sevgi Gönül's personal calligraphy collection was at her own wish transferred to Sadberk Hanim Museum in 2004, following her premature death. Sadberk Hanim Museum's collection of manuscripts and calligraphy totalled 915 works at the start of 2019. Apart from the 157 works belonging to the Sevgi Gönül collection, the museum collection comprises the Hüseyin Kocabas collection, the Pirizade collection, works purchased at auction in Turkey and abroad, and donations. The Hüseyin Kocabas collection of 601 works consists of Korans, copies of the Dela'ilü'l-Hayrat,miscellanies, calligraphers' diplomas and literary works. The Pirizade collection consists of 28 manuscripts, nine of which are Korans. Korans and prayer books that are richly illuminated on every page, albums, documents such as endowment deeds, property deeds, imperial edicts, are invaluable sources of information for Ottoman social and economic history, architecture and art. Examples preserved in Sadberk Hanim Museum are enlightening as regards Ottoman calligraphic style between the late fifteenth and early twentieth centuries, while the signatures on these works increase our knowledge of the master calligraphers, artists and illuminators who created them.
