Estate Jewelry: 1760-1960

Beautiful book with large lovely photos of antique & vintage jewelry. Very informative.

This is an incredible book for jewelry lovers

Just received this book last night. Estate jewelry is such a vast topic. This book could have been good or really bad...but it ROCKS! I am a jewelry dealer and have a library of reference books. This book has so much to offer. The author touched on so many different categories within the umbrella of "Estate Jewelry". In one night I learned three things that I did not know. She has photos of items that I have never seen before in a book. The correlation between clothing and jewelry styles throughout the years is presented in a very comprehensive manner. Photography is great. I very much appreciate how construction techniques and the evolution of style is presented in this book. A must have for the library of collectors and dealers. I can't wait to read it again tonight!

Very neat and informative book... Detailed descriptions.

This book is in excellent condition, love it! Great seller, good communication!

I have dozens of books on costume and estate jewelry and I rate this as one of the best. Beautiful and detailed photographs and sketches (colored and black & white). I especially appreciate the historical information of the different style periods. After 35 years of collecting jewelry, I appreciated this book for offering me a continued learning opportunity. This book is definitely one I will keep close by.

Wow. What a wonderful book. It's only the 2nd "jewelry" book I have purchased. I recently got into collecting vintage jewelry and wanted to focus my interests, and I am so glad I chose this book. I absolutely love it, and refer to it often. I have already been able to apply the information to my treasure hunting for vintage and estate jewelry. Thank you!

A nice compliment to my other Vintage Jewelry Books. Very good pictures, with descriptions, and dates. I like books better if their pieces are dated.

Awesome book great information!

Book did arrive ,there is no problem. Book is lovely, full of WONDERFUL information and am very pleased. Thank you

This book is supposed to be by a gemologist & expert but there are many incorrect things in it. The modt annkying thing is the prices are wildly over valued. Even if it is American and only published a few years ago. There are many areas where there isn't enough information. There are items incorrectly identified. The trademarks of costume jewellers are very vague you are better off using the internet. Thd Schiffer series has some good books but this was a waste of money.
