Chaumet Paris, Two Centuries of Creation traces the history of a great jewelry house, a vast fresco evoking in turn the splendor of the courts of the First and Second Empires, the refinement of the Belle Époque and the sophisticated luxury of the interwar period, as well as the fascinating world of the tsars and the exoticism of the maharajahs of India. Jewelry, objets d'art, and goldsmith pieces are presented in the context of their creation, alongside paintings and photographs of eminent personalities and social events. This book reveals how Chaumet continually expressed its creativity from the Napoleonic era to the end of the 20th century.
