Le fermoir en Bijouterie, 4 000 ans d’Histoires

Le XIX^e siècle, apothéose de la boîte-cliquet

The first-ever history of the jewellery clasp.

After ten years’ research, Anna Tabakhova recently published Clasps: 4,000 years of Fasteners in Jewellery : a book now sold in 25 countries. In three exhibitions on three Saturdays, she will exhibit historical and contemporary clasps divided into three themes.

Visitors can discover four millennia of inventiveness in informal afternoon chats.
