Cora Sheibani

William Grant is the author of Andrew Grima: The Father of Modern Jewellery, the definitive monograph on Britain’s most celebrated postwar jeweller, published by ACC in November 2021. This, his second book, explores the life and work of one of Europe’s most promising young jewellery designers.

"To page through its contents is to tumble down a rabbit hole of carved gemstones, cloud shapes, and gleaming colored aluminum (with a gorgeous mad genius of flame-red hair as your guide)."

"The Sheibani monograph deftly weaves together Sheibani’s personal life and her jewelry, exploring ways in which one feeds the other."

"At less than 10 inches wide and weighing only about 3.5 pounds, the book is designed to be easily handled. “Making a hefty coffee table book filled with pictures seemed completely uninteresting,” she said. “I wanted a book that you would read and told the story of a real creative journey.”"

"Sheibani’s pieces are considered highly collectable, a bridge between art, jewellery and design; deeply contemporary and rooted in the moment, just as she intended. She releases a new collection every year or so (she does not follow an exact timeline) with an accompanying coffee-table book to explain the materials, craft and processes."
