See more

(06/07/10) When jewelry is no longer defined by the precious metals or stones used, the new meaning enables amateurs and professionals alike to stretch their imaginations. And so does this first book by a Barcelona teacher and practitioner. He concentrates on ensuring that readers have a good understanding of the basics, from the ABCs of metallurgy to such complicated techniques as enameling and lacquering. In fact, included are a few resurrected methods; for instance, niello, an easily accomplished form of enameling, is often seen in eastern European silver pieces but rarely in the U.S. Most of the examples are contemporary, taken from European designers, and all blessed with great color photographs--as is the grand finale, the step-by-step how-tos of seven different pieces, detailed with words and in pictures, though none are really intended for rank beginners. An introduction for buyers as well as for budding artisans. Barbara Jacobs Copyright © American Library Association. All rights...See less

See more

(08/04/09) From Booklist Though the origins of French beaded flowers are not all that clear (after all, glass beads have been traced to Venice), Baker gives a more-than-adequate account of their fashioning. Delicate to look at and almost as difficult to shape and work, these faux bouquets, originally revived in the 1960s and 1970s, achieve new prominence in the millennium thanks to the emphasis on handcrafts and to a desire to spend less-than-antique sums of money. Illustrations accompany all of the complicated loops, whether single or multicrossover, yet close-up graphics would have clarified techniques even further. The author assumes some prior beading know-how on the part of the reader; details delivered on every aspect of beadwork, from tools and supplies to different ways of covering stems, are not attuned to rank novices.
