A dazzling look at a superb collection of magnificent jewelry and objets d'art by one of the 20th century's most inventive and influential designers

Famous for his inventive interpretations of animal and botanical subjects, artist-jeweler Jean Schlumberger (1907-1987) played a key role in 20th-century fashion with his vibrant sculptural designs for whimsical jewelry and accessories. After beginning his career crafting costume jewelry for designer Elsa Schiaparelli in 1930s Paris, Schlumberger opened his own private salon at Tiffany & Co. in the mid-1950s and began attracting celebrity clients, including Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn, and Jacqueline Kennedy.

This stylish catalogue presents highlights from the unrivaled collection of Schlumberger's work given to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts by horticulturist, philanthropist, and longtime supporter of the museum Rachel Lambert Mellon. Both commissioned and collected by Mrs. Mellon, these magnificent cigarette cases, pill boxes, brooches, necklaces, bracelets, and objets d'art celebrate the shared passions that united artist and patron: love of nature, dedication to perfection and beauty, and clarity of vision.

Artist-jeweler Jean Schlumberger transformed 20th-century fashion with his sculptural designs for vibrant and whimsical jewelry and accessories inspired by nature. From crafting costume jewelry for designer Elsa Schiaparelli in 1930s Paris to heading his own private salon at New York’s Tiffany & Co. beginning in the 1950s, Schlumberger was known for inventive interpretations of animal and botanical subjects and iconic pieces that came to define mid-century chic. His witty designs for objects ranging from cigarette cases and pill boxes to brooches, necklaces, and bracelets were popular with some of the most celebrated women of the day and are among the highlights of the Rachel Lambert Mellon Collection of Jean Schlumberger at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.

Excellent Red Team InfoSec Book
Format: Paperback
One of the better books on the market on real penetration testing and creating advanced persistent threats. Great coding examples/strategies and how to think outside the box when it comes to attacking systems/companies. Elite guys like Wil Allsopp create their own custom tools all the time for real penetration testing. This is what nation-state actors are doing. Highly recommended.

Buy this rather than all the other books out there. I have a whole library full, and I do mean full, and this is one of the very few really great ones. A wonderful surprise as I was reading another book that got high praise and it is really sorry, a waste of money.

Finally! A Book That Teaches Kids How to Calm Down
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
Pediatrician approved! This is a great book for toddlers, preschoolers and even school-age kids! What sets this book apart from other books on this topic is that it helps kids understand the physical sensation of their emotions. It explains what is happening in their brains and bodies when those feelings start to get "too big.” Also, instead of just telling a child to stay calm, it gives them safe, tangible ways to actually do it like belly breathing, asking for a cuddle, and so many more , As a Pediatrician who works closely with children and families, I can’t recommend this enough. It’s a gentle, practical, and science-backed tool that turns a stressful meltdown into a teaching opportunity. Will be buying more copies of this book for my kids preschool and school!

Loved this book, really helped with my kids!
Format: Board book
This book is so helpful to give parents the language to talk through feelings with their kids! I have big feeling kids and often the social media scripts can feel awkward and forced. I love that this book helps me have that conversation while my kids are calm and enjoying the cute pictures. I really liked the other two books by Dr. Goodwin and this one is a great addition!
