Harry Winston Jewerllery
Description
The cover of the book Harry Winston A beautiful love story between the jeweller and exceptional stones to be discovered in a beautiful book prefaced by Andre Leon Talley and published by Rizzoli. It is a story that has lasted for eight decades, from the first pieces designed by Harry Winston in 1932 in the secrecy of his workshop to the appearances of stars on the Oscar red carpet adorned with his creations. A house that is almost a hundred years old, and which has entered posterity thanks to Marilyn Monroe's sensual effusion "Talk to me Harry Winston, tell me all about it", in her evocatively named hit Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, and which is now recounted in this book with a preface by Andre Leon Talley, the charismatic contributor to US Vogue, this book pays tribute to the Hollywood icons who, from Elizabeth Taylor to Katharine Hepburn, have made Harry Winston carats shine in the most prestigious spotlights, but also to the exceptional stone, the real queen of this book. The jeweller himself said that he would have liked to be able to hang diamonds directly on a woman's skin. A fusional relationship that can be read throughout the pages through archive images, memories or photos of breathtaking pieces, such as Lesotho, to the sound of Harry Winston's own quotes to better grasp some of the magical star dust that the jeweller blew on his creations.
