Seller's Description:
VG/VG/VG. Black stamped cloth boards with gilt spine lettering. Color-illustrated dust jacket with black and red lettering, matching hardshell slipcase with cutout. 304 pp. Mainly color illustrations. "With the introduction of fine timepieces more than 150 years ago at its 271 Broadway store, Tiffany & Co. first brought the art of Swiss watchmaking to the attention of a broad American public. During the 1860s and 1870s, Tiffany Timers, made at Tiffany's Geneva manufacturing shops-along with the superb watches it imported as the exclusive American representative of Patek Philippe-were the preferred timepieces of a dauntingly impressive roster of Tiffany clients." "To house the finest watch and clock movements, Tiffany's jewelry and silver shops in Manhattan created caseworks of world-class design and unprecedented opulence, winning numerous awards at the great international expositions in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Without exception, all of Tiffany's leading designers and design directors have contributed to Tiffany timepiece design, from Edward C. Moore, Paulding Farnham, Charles Osborne, and John T. Curran in the nineteenth century to Louis Comfort Tiffany, Van Day Truex, Jean Schlumberger, Elsa Peretti, Paloma Picasso, and John Loring in the twentieth." "No other American jeweler has played such a central role in the history of timepieces in America, and no area of luxury goods developed by Tiffany's has a more fascinating history. Through its lavish illustrations and engaging, informative text by John Loring, Tiffany Timepieces conveys both Tiffany's and America's roles in making the fine Swiss timepiece the most treasured object in jewelry wardrobes throughout the world."--Jacket.
