Rock Crystal Treasures

Raulet (graphic artist, journalist, and historian) traces the history of rock crystal, a narrative that runs through the history of humanity itself. With text and numerous color illustrations, he shows the development of decorative arts and jewelry from the earliest examples predating 1000 B.C. to Egypt during the Fatimid dynasty, the crowned heads of Europe, and the talented jewelers and artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.
