Jewelry and Armenian Goldsmiths under the Ottomans

Arsen Yarman

 

 

 

In his meticulous two-volume book, Arsen Yarman reveals the treasures created by artisans from the earth’s dust and dirt in the period between the 16th and the 20th century. Supported by exceedingly detailed archival documents and previously unpublished rich visual material from multiple sources, the author pursues the path leading to the affluent society’s mansions and palaces.  At the same time he uncovers in detail the exceptional influence of the Armenian jewelers on the heritage of Ottoman jewelry.

Jewelry and Armenian Goldsmiths under the Ottomans does not only show the jewelry crafted by Armenian goldsmiths over the centuries with gold, silver and precious stones, but it also includes the silent witnesses of the period, the culture, aesthetics and social values. It presents the beliefs and dreams of the time, the artisans’ exquisite craftsmanship, the trade secrets they passed down through the generations, and the outstanding value they added to the art of jewelry.

All in all, this book is not just for reading, it is a sparkling bridge that delivers the light of the past to the future. Discover this treasure, so brimming with poignant stories and historical anecdotes you feel in your heart, add it to your collection as you enter into this extraordinary journey.
