ART DECO JEWELRY - JAKOB BENGEL, IDAR-OBERSTEIN/GERMANY C Weber-Stober
Published:2008
The jewellery produced by Bengel between 1931 and 1938 is distinguished by that of other makers by extraordinarily powerful innovation and a high degree of individuality. A mix of materials consisting of the coloured plastic Galalith and chromium-plated metal is handled with a playfully light touch. Bengel jewellery was exported world-wide. More than two hundred and fifty pieces of Bengel jewellery are superbly reproduced and described in this monograph on the firm. In addition, the book surveys over one hundred and thirty years of Bengel history and gives insights into sample books that have survived from the years 1924 to 1939. Over ten thousand drawings in colour furnish conclusive source material on designers and design practice during those years
