The first ten pages of the book are a bit of the history of this landmark jewelry shop which has been in the very same spot since it was opened by Simeone Codognato in 1866, the ancestor of the current proprietor Attilio Codognato. The remainder of the book consists of magnificent full-page color photographs, mostly of the stunning and unique jewelry, but a few of the shop etc. A must-have for every jewelry aficionado.
