Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Ab der zweiten Hälfte 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 für die ganze Welt Schmuck produziert; heute hat dieses Gewerbe nahezu keine Bedeutung mehr. Während dieser langen Zeitspanne war Idar-Oberstein neben Pforzheim, Schwäbisch Gmünd und Hanau eines der vier wichtigsten deutschen Schmuckzentren. Im Idar-Obersteiner Modeschmuck spiegeln sich die jeweils aktuellen Trends: Historismus, Jugendstil, Art Déco - bis hin zu Informel und Zero der 1960er und 1970er Jahre. Der innovative Umgang mit einfachen (kostengünstigen) Materialien führte dort schon früh zu einer vom Echtschmuck unabhängigen Ästhetik.Die Firma Bengel - mit ihrem raffinierten Art Déco-Schmuck - steht hier als Beispiel für innovative Modell- und Unternehmenspolitik. Die Autorin hat vor Ort viele alte Dokumente und Fotografien, aber auch Schmuckstücke gefunden, die zusammen ein aufschlussreiches Bild der Historie bieten. So erhalten wir ein lebendiges Bild von 12 Schmuckfirmen: Inhaber und Mitarbeiter, Produktionsbedingungen, Modellpolitik, Schmuckstücke im Stil der jeweiligen Zeit und der weltweite Vertrieb. Modeschmuck aus Idar-Oberstein war in der Regel nicht gekennzeichnet (punziert), da der Vertrieb über Grossisten erfolgte; dies macht heute eine Zuordnung zu einer einzelnen Firma nicht immer einfach.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. 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.Text in English & German. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9783897903142
