"Calder created over 2,000 pieces of jewelry over the course of his career, many of them as gifts for friends and relatives. Several pieces reflect Calder's fascination with art from Africa and other continents. They were mostly made of brass and steel, with bits of ceramic, wood and glass. Calder rarely used solder; when he needed to join strips of metal, he linked them with loops, bound them with snippets of wire or fashioned rivets. Calder created his first pieces in 1906 at the age of eight for his sister's dolls using copper wire that he found in the street."

Near fine; the slightest surface wear to jacket; an excellent clean copy. The scarce hardback catalogue for a touring exhibition of Calder's Jewelry. The photographs of the jewelry pieces are of the highest-quality and generously scaled. Each detail is clearly seen, making this an excellent resource for designers and students. The many illustrations are accompanied by essays, an illustrated chronology and a detailed catalogue of the pieces in the exhibition. Calder's jewelry has the same linear yet three-dimensional quality as his famous wire sculptures and mobiles, and the parts that comprise each piece are hammered, shaped, and composed in a fashion that echoes the artist's creation of his sculpture. Calder produced more than 1,800 pieces of jewelry, beginning in 1906 when he found some copper wire discarded in the street and adorned his sister's dolls. This use of non-precious materials and found objects guided his intuitive jewelry technique, from his bohemian years of the 1920s and 1930s to the war years. His jewelry was coveted by the Surrealist coterie, and today is still highly sought after by collectors and museums.…
