Beautiful book to look at and read and also is nice on the coffee table
I love this book. It’s so interesting and fascinating because I also have a book on Chanel and I’m also going to get a book on Cartier. It’s not necessarily I can afford them. I just find the design how the concepts of things were how it’s made who started it how it work how it’s got to where it is just absolutely fascinating

A capa do primeiro livro veio com manchas, como se estivesse queimada de sol. Pedi a troca e prontamente a Amazon fez a troca sem custo algum. Muito bom o livro.
