Customer Reviews
A thing of beauty in its own right
After completing a basic course, this book was a source of inspiration and,perhaps more importantly, guidance in the techniques needed to manufacture similar articles.
Clear photography enables close examination of the piece, but also makes this book a thing of beauty in its own right
Good book for reference
This is a very good book for reference and ideas. 4 stars as it would be better if it had more pages
Definitley look at it...
...if you really can't come up with your ideas for shape and form, or like to use secondary sources as your prime inspiration I can't think what else the point of this book might be. I don't know why I bought it to be honest....
