Culme, John. The Jewels of the Duchess of Windsor. First Edition. 1987. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition.
This large coffee table book was published in cooperation with Sotheby’s to commemorate the auction of the Duchess of Windsor’s jewels in April 1987, which generated enormous public excitement and sales of nearly fifty million. It contains color photos of most of the pieces that were sold, including the Duchess’s emerald engagement ring and her spectacular collection of pendants with a feline motif. The book also includes b & w photographs of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor and of the Duchess wearing many of the pieces.
“She was easier on design than she was on price, and she was a terrible stickler on design.”
--Harry Winston, Inc., on its famous client
