David Yurman’s First Book Is Out
Surprise, surprise: It’s all about the cable, the material that made the sculptor-cum-jewelry designer famous.
New York--The first book about jewelry designer David Yurman just came out and, surprise, surprise, it’s all about the twisted wire rope that made him famous.
Yurman was a sculptor who, in partnership with his wife, Sybil, launched his namesake jewelry company in 1980, debuting his cable bracelet in 1983.
Thirty-four years later, it’s become his signature and one of the most widely recognized forms in modern jewelry design, propelling Yurman to international success.
And now there’s a book about it.
“David Yurman Cable” is a 216-page hardcover tome that is 12.5” x 12.25” and includes 150 color and black-and-white photographs, never-before-seen sketches by Yurman and informational text.
A press release about the book states: “‘David Yurman Cable’ explores cable as an archetypal form in both history and nature and Yurman’s artistic use of it as the brand’s defining visual icon.”
It retails for $95 and is available from Rizzoli, the New York publishing house and book store that also did Stellene Volandes’s “Jeweler,” the coffee-table book on James De Givenchy’s jewelry, and held a launch party for the recently released book about Oscar Heyman.
Yurman and his wife, who also is a painter, wrote the forward for “Cable.”
The contributors were: Peter Greenhalgh, an author and director of the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts at the University of East Anglia in England; William Norwich, a writer, fashion and interior design editor and video and television reporter; and former French Vogue Editor-in-Chief Carine Roitfeld, who is the founder of CR Fashion Book.
