Solange

"With a very au courant neon green jacket, Solange: Jewellery for Chromantics demands your attention at first sight. And because the 272 pages that follow are just as captivating, this is one book that you can—and should—judge by its cover. The Rizzoli title celebrates the 35-year career of British jewelry designer Solange Azagury-Partridge, who has made a name for herself as one of the go-to jewelers for avant-garde, pop art-influenced pieces. Everyone from Beyoncé and Sarah Jessica Parker to Thandiwe Newton and Julianne Moore has worn her edgy creations, which are, above all else, inspired by joy.
The themed chapters that follow are a true feast for the eyes, featuring dazzling gemstone-filled photos along with insightful text by the designer herself. It’s a book that you’ll pour over time and again for inspiration—and you’ll want to pre-order it now, along with 9 more of the best jewelry books being published this fall.  In the first book about her work, out on October 15, Azagury-Partridge treats longtime fans—as well as those who are unfamiliar with her designs—to a deliciously extravagant curation of her most whimsical pieces. Following a foreword by Victoria and Albert Museum curator Clare Phillips, jewelry historian Ruth Peltason explains how words like “synesthesia,” “veridian,” and “chlorophyll” tie into Azagury-Partridge’s fantasy-fueled, emotionally-driven collections (the latter refers to her emerald, ruby, diamond and lacquer Chlorophyll necklace, which is set in blackened 18-karat white gold and is pictured on the cover of the book)." — ONLY NATURAL DIAMONDS
