Pharrell: Carbon, Pressure & Time by Pharrell
With pieces drawn from the extensive personal collection of Pharrell Williams, this is a stunning and unprecedented exploration of the 'bling' in hip-hop culture and fashion.
"Bling, ice, drip—whatever you call it, jewelry has always been the epitome
of cool luxuryAs for how it became the definitive accessory of hip-hop, you can thank Pharrell Williams. The legendary multi-hyphenate made his foray into the world of jewels in 2004, when he co-created the “Millionaire” Sunglasses with Nigo and Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton. In the nearly two decades since, he’s been the mastermind behind countless other opulent, outrageous pieces, including blinged-out rings, watches, and golden phone cases for Richard Mille, Tiffany & Co., and more. Images of these creations and other gems from his personal collection are on display in Pharrell: Carbon, Pressure & Time: A Book of Jewels, accompanied by Williams’s priceless, insightful commentary in conversation with Nigo and Tyler, the Creator." —V MAGAZINE
"Before he was the creative director for men’s wear at Louis Vuitton, Pharrell Williams decked out hip-hop stars (including himself) with jewelry. This book may be as close as you will get to trying any of it on." —NY TIMES
"For an exquisite look at Pharrell Williams’ abiding love for jewelry, this handsome artifact is the treat you need. Featuring a trove of Pharrell’s most treasured pieces—a Super Mario pendant, a Gaby Elan grill, Tiffany sunglasses—this high-glam book, like its namesake, is svelte, tasteful, and full of style." —ESQUIRE
"By now, Pharrell is as well known for his music as he is for his contributions to fashion. It’s been a decade and a half since his designs were first integrated into one of Louis Vuitton’s jewelry collections, and in Pharrell: Carbon, Pressure & Time: A Book of Jewels, he discusses the evolution of jewelry in hip-hop culture and his own custom design process in conversations with Tyler, the Creator, Lorraine Schwartz, Jacob & Co.’s Jacob Arabo, and more. He also shares over 100 of the blingiest pieces from his personal collection, and with a Casio G-Shock watch, KAWS pendant, and astronaut-inspired cuban link chain necklace among the many diamond-covered delights, the cool factor is, as expected, off the charts." —NATURAL DIAMONDS
