T hirty years after the first edition of Understanding Jewellery, the book by Sotheby’s specialists David Bennett and Daniela Mascetti remains the ultimate resource for professional👍s, collectors and enthusiasts alike.

With a visual library of high-resolution imagery of more than 1,000 pieces of jewellery dating from the 18th century to the present, the app provides a new and unꦿique way to look at the history, style and craft of jewellery. It is a fantastic resource to identify gemstones, discover the evolution of jewellery over two centuries and learn what an i𒈔tem of jewellery is made of, where it comes from and when it was made. The app is regularly updated with details of global jewelry auctions, exhibitions, markets and fairs.
