A work of art!5
I bought this book as I was seeking inspiration for my own jewellery making, as I use of a lot of silver components made by the Thai Karen tribes. But this book proved much more than a source of inspiration, it is rather a gem and a work of art in its own right. The photographs are just gorgeous and I can't begin to convey the beauty of the pieces of jewellery selected for the book. I was left dreaming of owing jewellery of such elegance and opulence. I think anybody with an interest in ethnic jewellery will find this book an absolute visual treat!!

Great reference bk for bold, distinctive jewelry5
it has beautiful pictures of very distinctive ethnic jewelry. Great for inspiring student jewelers like me. It has everything from bone, ivory, shell jewelry.

a classic for people who like bold, and more primitive like style.

The most beautiful ethnic jewelry book I have seen5
This is a HUGE book filled with georgeous close-ups of really inspirational jewelry. A favorite of mine!
