Featuring brooches, rings, and pendants displayed in major European museums, the book offers deep insight into her creative legacy and is a prized collectible in good used condition. ## Description Since the 1960s, Elisabeth Defner has been one of Austria's most prominent jewelry artists. Nowadays her works are displayed in museums in e.g. Vienna, Graz, Pforzheim, Cologne, Prague and London. Defner sees jewelry not merely as an aesthetic matter, but also as a form of complementary healthcare for body, soul and spirit. The energy radiated from the metals and stones is in holistic harmony with the forms of the jewelry and can bring about an inner transformation of the wearer. Brooches, earrings, rings or pendants are combined with moulded plant leaves, so that the beauty of the jewelry can merge symbolically with the magical effect of the plant. Her understanding of art is reflected in a famous remark by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer: 'Truly art is firmly fixed in Nature. He who can extract her thence, he alone has her'. Text in English and German. Review: Must read for women metal smithing creators - Beautiful book and story of an amazing woman creator in a time when it was mostly men. It was eye opening to see & remember when metals were affordable. Review: This book gives great insight into this artist as a creative person. - I was struck by ELizabeth's work, her creativity, and the lovely person she is. A must for any one. The publisher certainly has captured not only her life story but her essence of being. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,176,377 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #599 in Antique & Collectible Jewelry (Books) #1,705 in Jewelry Craft (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 5 Reviews | ## Images ![Elisabeth Defner: Man - Nature - Cosmos Jewellery and Objects (English and German Edition) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qU-y5L3QL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must read for women metal smithing creators *by R***N on February 9, 2026* Beautiful book and story of an amazing woman creator in a time when it was mostly men. It was eye opening to see & remember when metals were affordable. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book gives great insight into this artist as a creative person. *by L***N on September 18, 2013* I was struck by ELizabeth's work, her creativity, and the lovely person she is. A must for any one. The publisher certainly has captured not only her life story but her essence of being. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A missing jewel *by J***E on October 23, 2016* Much better than I expected from the cover design. Not sure why they would choose something that doesn't really reflect the majority of her work. I didn't know this jeweler/designer but I saw the book and thought worthwhile to have in my collection so purchased. This person deserves more recognition for her work. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/46648152-elisabeth-defner-man-nature-cosmos-jewellery-and-objects-english-german](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/46648152-elisabeth-defner-man-nature-cosmos-jewellery-and-objects-english-german) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-09*
