Andrew Grima – The Father of Modern Jewellery As the subtitle of this book states, Andrew Grima really is the father of modern jewellery. He established a new vocabulary for jewellery and his designs from the 60s are now hugely sought after. He was determined to banish the traditional flower spray brooches of yesteryear and create exciting new pieces that chimed with the changing times. His Jermyn Street store was equally daring and confrontational in its design with a facade designed by the abstract sculptor Bryan Kneale. From this store the glitterati of the age bought jewellery; he subsequently opened further stores in Sydney, New York , Tokyo and Gstaad. Hardback, 336 pages. Measurements: 30.5cm x 24.5cm x 4cm
