The first book dedicated to Vivienne Westwood's jewellery creations, published in close collaboration with the house and written by fashion - and Westwood - expert Alexander Fury.

This lavish survey of Vivienne Westwood jewellery evokes the heady blend of luxury and rebellion that is the house's signature style. Whether a skilfully rendered safety-pin brooch, a hand-strung 'broken' pearl necklace or the iconic Westwood orb in crystal, these are pieces that define the house's codes.

Following an introduction by renowned fashion journalist Alexander Fury, who acquaints readers with the recurring motifs, techniques and inspirations of the world of Vivienne Westwood jewellery, the book presents almost two hundred pieces arranged by theme. From punk masterworks, such as the 'Hardcore Paperclip Earrings' and 'Chaos Necklace', through the pastel-toned 'Flower Skull Necklace' and 'Nymph Earrings', to the recycled can 'Simone Earrings' and the pagan 'Conkers Necklace', contemporary creations mingle with reimagined classics.

A full range of jewellery is included: necklaces, pendants and chokers; earrings, brooches, pins, badges and nose rings; metal masks; tiaras and coronets; bejewelled sunglasses; cuffs and bangles. Each piece is indexed with its name, fashion season, and what is often an extraordinary range of materials.

Through evocative still life vignettes and close-ups, images of catwalk models and stunning portraits of Vivienne Westwood herself, this glittering volume welcomes readers to a vibrant world that draws on the house's rich heritage.
