It goes without saying that jewels are not just ornaments: precious stones, necklaces, rings help us to express our way of being. They remind us of particular moments or special people, sometimes we wear them or offer them as gifts to make a strong impression on others. The author of this book, a tiny gem in itself, is an authority on the subject, and her memories, combined with alluring digressions on topics ranging from fashion to style, from history to literature to cinema, tell us about a world of art and beauty, where dreams often turn into scintillating  realities.
Cover by Francesca Joppolo, drawings by Marco Milanesi.

I gioielli, si sa, non sono soltanto ornamenti: con le pietre preziose, le collane, gli anelli esprimiamo il nostro modo di essere. Ci ricordano momenti particolari o persone speciali, a volte li indossiamo o regaliamo per far colpo su qualcuno. L’autrice di questo libro, anch’esso un piccolo gioiello, è una vera autorità in materia e i suoi ricordi, uniti a piacevoli divagazioni che spaziano dalla moda al costume, dalla storia alla letteratura e al cinema, ci raccontano un mondo fatto di arte e bellezza dove non di rado i sogni diventano luccicante realtà.

Copertina di Francesca Joppolo, illustrazioni di Marco Milanesi.
