Nouveau recueil de parures de joyaillerie : second livre
A jewelry pattern book published in Paris in 1764 by Pouget, a jeweller, with Tilhard as bookseller, offering designs for settings and ornaments for jewellers and their clients. The engraved plates show stylised ornaments: foliate sprays, bows, cluster rosettes, oval and lozenge mounts with beaded or scrolled borders, and pendant drops. A designer could take the period repertoire of rococo-era jewel mounts, from radiating floral fans to garland strands and closed link bands.
