This insightful look at the past 50 years of Canadian jewellery and metal art is a valuable addition to our arts and crafts history. Richly illustrated with examples of important and unique work in a variety of media, this book chronicles the evolution of the post-war metalcraft movement in Canada -- while many of the key artists are still alive to tell their stories and explain their techniques. Ornament & Object will serve as both a source of inspiration and a valuable reference work for decades to come.
