\n\tAt the heart of her approach is the idea that \u201cjewelry should not merely be worn. It should be felt,\u201d said the jeweler, who launched her brand in 2006.<\/p>\n
\n\tUnfurling through the book is a radical approach that holds gender irrelevant, sensuality and even sexuality paramount, and music essential. The narration is peppered with bon mots, such as Martin\u2019s firm believe that \u201cif you\u2019re going to plunder the earth for its stones and precious metals, you had better have something interesting to say.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tSuch an unapologetic stance has found resonance with musicians and fellow designers such as Rihanna, Madonna, Morrissey, Keith Richards and Olivier Rousteing, who all wear Martin\u2019s designs. It also saw the likes of Louis Vuitton, Chaumet and Tabayer, as well as brands such as Hussein Chalayan, Phoebe Philo and Martine Rose, call on her for commissions.<\/p>\n
\n\tShe collaborated with Libertines frontman Pete Doherty in 2010 and currently ongoing, with Guy Berryman, the Coldplay bassist who is also the cofounder of Amsterdam-based label Applied Art Forms.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe book includes nearly 350 photographs, sketches and illustrations that include finished pieces, those who wear Martin\u2019s designs but also show the jeweler at various stages of her creative process.<\/p>\n
\n\tPublished by ACC Art Books, the book will be available in the U.K. for 45 pounds. It will be released in the U.S. on Oct. 28, priced at $60.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"DIAMOND STUDDED: To mark 20 years since British jeweler Hannah Martin launched her studio and brand, a book…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":39029,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[288,29864,93,61,60,29865,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-39028","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-books","8":"tag-books","9":"tag-central-saint-martins","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-jewelry","14":"tag-london"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39028","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39028"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39028\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39029"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39028"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39028"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39028"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
