This book is a pretty good one. I have only looked at it once since purchasing, I may suggest buying used or seeing if your library has a copy.

5 out of 5 stars The most inspiring jewelry book I own (or I've seen!)   July 10, 2008
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

I own many jewelry books of several types and this book is BY FAR leaps and bounds above the rest in all the important areas. It is gorgeous to look at and ALL of the projects are inspirational - meaning that they lead your mind to other applications of the techniques shown. It is an excellent teaching tool: it details particularly well the materials and tools you will need to be successful with this type of jewelry work, and the instructions for each technique and project are so well outlined and easy to follow. I truly am blown away by this book! (in case you can't tell!) Most books I've found to be somewhat disappointing, and not always as well-written as you might hope for. But to find all of that PLUS to love EVERY project... WELL! What an accomplishment!
