"How can this book be adequately reviewed when there are not possibly enough superlatives to describe and discuss Cartier Dazzling: High Jewelry and Precious Objects?

This is one of those books that come along once in a very long time. . . Unquestionably this is one of the great books of its genre." -NY JOURNAL OF BOOKS
