This impressive monograph presents a decade of work by jeweller Daniel Kruger (b. 1951), spanning the last 10 years. Featuring over 200 colour illustrations.

Born in South Africa, Kruger studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and taught at the University of Art and Design at Burg Giebichenstein in Halle. His works often endow common objects with new and unexpected meanings. Inspired by movement and a fascination with the visual qualities of materials and objects, shapes and colors, Kruger creates a synthesis of supposed opposites, using jewellery techniques to elevate curious combinations of things – rendering them precious.
