Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book : This book describe that art of enamelling on metal is successfully practiced in many parts of India, but it is universally acknowledged that the best work on gold is produced at Jeypore, in Rajputana. The colours employed rival the tints of the rainbow in purity and brilliancy, and they are laid on the gold by the Jeypore artists with such exquisite taste that there is never a want of harmony; even when jewels are also used they serve but to enhance the beauty of the enamel. All who see the gold enamel work of Jeypore admire the beautiful designs in which it is carried out. It is with the view of placing some of these designs on record, and affording everyone the opportunity of seeing them, that this collection has been made.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. Contents: 1. Jewellery of Delhi and the United Provinces of Agra and Oudh. 2. Jewellery of Rajputana and Malwa or Central India. 3. Jewellery of the Panjab, Kashmir, Afghanistan, and the Northern Himalayas. 4. Jewellery of the Bombay Presidency; including Aden. 5.

Jewellery of Eastern Bengal (contd.); Burma, Nepal and adjacent countries. 10. Antique jewellery and ornaments; general conclusions. ""The Journal of Indian Art" is still one of the most consulted books on Indian jewellery. It is an authentic source for scholars and collectors who are engaged with traditional Indian jewellery or ancient techniques. The original of "Indian Jewellery" was edited in 1909 by Thomas Holbein Hendley, comprising Nos. 95-107 of The Journal of Indian Art. The picture plates of this book show "native" ornaments of British India, demonstrating the vast variety of Indian jewellery in the eight provinces at the end of the nineteenth century. Examples of the jewellery of past civilizations of Asia and Europe were added for consideration of the history and development of the different styles. The book's illustrations and descriptions of old Indian royal and peasant ornaments are of unaltered interest now, one hundred years later. During this past period, new developments and designs of jewellery have come up, frequently based on the old traditions. The centenary reprint edition of "Indian Jewellery" was therefore supplemented with photographs of recent Indian jewellery, as an attempt to present "revival" pieces that are still en vogue after one hundred years, as well as to show examples of new developments which were manufactured after the old style, yet with modifications and adaptations, answering to a modernized taste and demand."
