Reviews

In contrast to Young's quick reference, Jewelry Techniques: The Essential Guide to Choosing and Using Materials, Stones, and Settings, this is a comprehensive encyclopedia of current techniques. Newly available materials and equipment for professional jewelry artists make up-to-date guides important purchases, and this is a good replacement for older books.
