India, Jewels that Enchanted the World presents for the first time
the remarkable history and unique legacy of 500 years of Indian
jewellery, from the 17th century to the present. The essays, all
written by leading international scholars, explore the rich,
distinctive, and unique heritage of Indian jewellery; the striking
boldness of South Indian ornaments; the delicate refinement of the
Mughal period; the dazzling jewels of the post-Mughal maharajas;
the cross-cultural influences between Europe and India in the 19th
and early 20th centuries; and the creations of leading contemporary
designers whose jewels display the enduring beauty of Indian design
and craftsmanship. Published to accompany a major exhibition at the
State Museums of the Moscow Kremlin organised jointly with the
Indo-Russian Jewellery Foundation, this lavishly illustrated
catalogue brings together royal, ceremonial, and personal Indian
jewels to showcase the entire range and variety of the jeweller's
art in India.
