The New Warman's JEWELRY field guide is the Wikipedia of Bijoux & Wearable art. It's a must have volume for any novice or collector who covets this glistening media.It's way more than a "field guide" considering the wonderfully written introductory essays that separate the definitive styles,materials,and trends. Kathy Flood has the ability to suck us into this shiny addictive world, at the same time educating us in the background. This precious collection of words, images, & detailed descriptions is actually a gem in itself. While measuring 4.25 x 5.25 inches, over 510 pages, one inch thick, is as intimate a book can be without receiving an X rating. At this totally affordable price, it's definitely going to be my ultimate Xmas Stocking Stuffer to everyone that i give good gift to.
Have a few other of the Warman books and liked that this one was small. As it said FIELD GUIDE I was hoping for many more photos and info on the numerous items one would encounter when out in the hunting field of jewelry. The photos were all terrific and it did talk about many current trending items out for today. They are always amazing with description and pricing so for the few items that I would be looking for it is extremely helpful. Overall beautiful book but still a little disappointed.
This book is probably great if you know about jewelry already., If you want a great book easy to read and try Estate Jewelry 1760-1960 by Diana Sanders Cinamon, it is really educational
I love looking at all pictures and as I get more into jewelry making I am finding this to be a good guide to model some of my more vintage pieces after. Also helps me to figure out what I am buying at flea markets and antique stores.
This little book (second edition) contains very good photographs, better than the first edition of this title, but very little text. It gives a specific price for each of the pictured pieces, but I did not find any reference as to how these prices were determined. To a novice collector, these prices could be misleading. Collecting costume jewelry for three-plus decades has taught me that a piece is worth what an available buyer is willing and able to pay for it when you need to sell it.
I returned this as I was disappointed. It does not have the jewelry I look for. It was cumbersome and just a rehash of other Warmans..
Really like the information in this book and definitely can use it when going to auctions, flea markets and garage sales. Would recommend to Jewelry lovers
This is an excellent, well written, well photographed book with tons of useful information on identifying pieces of jewelry. Highly recommended,
