TURKMEN JEWELRY
I turkmeni dell'Asia centrale e dell'Iran sono venerati per i loro tappeti e tessuti. Meno noti, ma ugualmente sbalorditivi, sono gli straordinari gioielli in argento creati da artigiani tribali turkmeni e argentieri urbani durante il XIX e l'inizio del XX secolo.Questo catalogo presenta quasi duecento pezzi e dettagli, che vanno da corone e copricapi a bracciali e anelli, decorati con accenti di corniola, turchese e altre pietre. Caratterizzati da una forma elegante, forme geometriche e delicati trafori, i gioielli turkmeni sono generalmente visti attraverso un obiettivo etnografico piuttosto che estetico. Evidenziando questi oggetti - che provengono da una delle più importanti collezioni private di ornamenti turkmeni nel mondo - e collocandoli nel più ampio contesto dell'arte islamica, questa pubblicazione rivoluzionaria eleva i pezzi vibranti e monumentali dall'arte popolare all'arte fine.
