About this product

Product Information

A spectacular celebration of European jewels, from Charlemagne to Louis XIV to Catherine the Great. For centuries, the wealth, power, and prestige of European monarchies was concentrated in the jewels that hung from their necks, decorated their clothing, and dripped from their fingers--often into the waiting hands of favorite courtiers. From the weighty, gem-encrusted gold crowns of medieval kings to glittering diamond tiaras of Belle Epoque princesses, Royal Jewels shows the exquisite range of gems worn by Europe's fabled monarchs. These are the dazzling remains of a lost era--when gems were powerful tools in the game of royal politics, and when the gift of jewelry bestowed far more than wealth on the recipient. Gems expressed court favor, strengthened international ties, and embodied the power of kings long dead and conquerors in the making. With over 300 exquisite photographs and edited by a distinguished group of experts, Royal Jewels is an incomparable examination of an incredible art.

This was purchased at a very good rate, so I can't complain about the price. My transaction with this seller was tarnished a bit by the misplacement of an additional book I had purchased. The seller sent this book out packaged well, but I do wish they had communicated a bit better about the situation with the other book before sending this one out. They did eventually respond to my messages and provided a full refund for the missing book. This part of our transaction was satisfactory & positive.
