The alphabet book approach illustrates the variety and profusion of these designs for architecture, gardens, porcelain, fashion, and so on. Most were donated by the producers and artists themselves.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The jeweler drawings collection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the entrance, a huge map indicates the extent of the collections with different-sized circles. With jewelry, the richest are those of Templier, Robin (a company famous in the late 19<sup>th<\/sup> century, then completely forgotten), Dusausoy, and Gaston Chopard (the forerunner of Caroline Scheufele). The largest is still Fouquet, founded at the end of the Second Empire by Alphonse, who was succeeded by his son Georges (known for his collaborations with artists like Mucha and Cassandre) and his grandson, Jean. Between the three of them they account for 20,000 drawings, more than half of which are lying dormant in big boxes piled up in the reserves.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The jeweler&#8217;s drawing: a work of art in itself\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Produced in watercolor, gouache or graphite on tracing paper, a jeweler&#8217;s drawing is chiefly a tool for indicating measurements, materials and sometimes comments for the craftsmen in charge of making the piece. Yet they look like works of art! The fine details of the &#8220;pea pod&#8221; aigrette from the early 17<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0century (the oldest) echo those of a <em>devant-de-corsage<\/em> representing lilies. The drawings from between 1925 and 30 by the painter L\u00e9veill\u00e9, the architect Eric Bagge and the poster artist Cassandre are genuine Cubist paintings. One of the most extraordinary is that of a Dusausoy barrette, where the highly subtle shadow work is obtained by superimposing tinted papers. Even the signature is stylized!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fouquet: from the drawing to the finished piece<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Fouquet&#8217;s drawings enable us to make comparisons with the jewelry belonging to the museum&#8217;s Jewelry Gallery,&#8221;<\/em> says Florent Gu\u00e9rif student and\u00a0<span lang=\"en\">researcher in the history of jewelry\u00a0<\/span>who is writing a thesis on this dynasty of jewelers. The most interesting example is a Renaissance-style carved gold sphinx holding a watch. This piece is accompanied by all the stages of creation, from the design and the gouache version to the plaster holding its imprint. This is particularly rare and shows us how a piece was simplified for technical reasons or cost issues.
