About this title

Synopsis

A lavish book to accompany the first exhibition of the celebrated Hollywood jeweler's fabled collection, organized by the Toledo Museum of Art. Features iconic jewels by Belperron, Cartier, Boucheron, Paul Flato, Tiffany, and more.

Famous Hollywood jeweler and designer of the dazzling engagement rings bestowed in The Bachelor, Neil Lane has amassed a jewelry collection unrivaled in glamour. His magnificent holdings include storied jewels by the most renowned designers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, many not only owned by stars of Hollywood’s golden age but also worn by them on screen. 

This richly illustrated catalogue reveals the extraordinary scope of Lane’s collection, highlighting its breathtaking beauty as well as its transatlantic roots and cultural significance to fashion history and style. The most stunning pieces are captured in photographs of Hollywood legends—from Mae West and Joan Crawford to Madonna, Zoe Saldana, and beyond—bringing their rich provenance to life. Featuring more than 150 jewels, this singular volume marks the first time that the majority of Lane’s remarkable collection has been presented to the public.
