One of Europe's most enigmatic jewelers shines forth in this dazzling book for Assouline. An opulent oversize volume, ‘Codognato Masterpiece’ unearths the wonders of this world-renowned Venetian boutique. Synonymous with its skull motif, Codognato’s ‘memento mori’ is less a reminder of death than a promise of resurrection. Jewel-encrusted skulls, serpents and antique cameos — once adored by Jean Cocteau and Gabrielle Chanel, and worn by Elizabeth Taylor and Jacqueline Kennedy — are cherished today by figures from Elton John to Maria Grazia Chiuri. Evoking archeological finds, art and antiques from the Byzantine to the Baroque, Codognato’s decadent, death-defying jewels are set amid intoxicating images of Venice in this precious publication authored by William Middleton and Laurence Benaïm.
