American Victorian, written by Marjorie Simon and published in the Winter 2017 issue of Metalsmith Magazine Magazine is an excellent history and story about the work of acclaimed studio jeweler Lola Brooks.
“By default or by design, Brooks mirrors aspects of Queen Victoria’s reign, during which contradictions abounded: the culture of death, a certain romanticism, a passion for collecting, and the appreciation for the meaning of objects.”
Metalsmith the go to magazine for studio jewelers in the states for more than 30 years is published and supported by the Society for North American Goldsmiths.
