Masterpieces of the jewelers' art these objects have been held by participants during private study in museums, invitation to master jeweler's studios, auction preview, entree to gemstone, pearl and diamond traders, and access to private collections.
Our programs, starting with jewelry study initiated by Jessica Deutsch at Sotheby's, have addressed every area of jewelry history and style. They include the foremost jewelry historians, art historians, experts and curators.
Arts to Life's unique approach is to juxtapose jewelry against the history of its period; explore the forces that impact style; examine the interaction between jewelry and the other arts; and look at the technicological advancements that generate change.
The story of jewelry and gemstones has incorporated its movement over time through plunder, revolution, fallen regimes or auction sale.
Our resources continue to expand as we search out new means of refining knowledge and intensifying exploration of the essential element that makes the extraordinary stand out from the ordinary.
This is what has lured explorers, merchants, royalty and collectors, and challenged the greatest jewelers in their search for the sublime.
Our ability to identify the sublime is what makes collectors, students and lovers of jewelry return to our programs.
