The human hand takes pride in its work, which provides its most authentic means of self-realization. With this book, Van Cleef & Arpels wish to pay homage to all those skilled and knowledgeable hands, whose humility and selflessness make it possible for jewellery to exist. It is a life force, transmitted by jewellers, setters, polishers and all those who are dailyconfronted by age-old and precious materials: shaping, transforming and exalting them, without ever betraying the reverence that a masterpiece should inspire. As the creators of objects that continue to demonstrate the evolution and consistency of the Van Cleef & Arpels style, the master craftmen from the workshops in the Place Vendôme are not just gifted artisans. They are not satisfied by melting, shaping, setting, assembling and polishing. They are not content with mere beauty: they are constantly searching for new challenges to slake their thirst for progress.
