    • Informative, thorough and easy to understand
Format: Paperback
This is one of the most comprehensive books on the subject I've read. I'm an amateur jewelry maker ~ I love making jewelry. This book has helped me improve techniques I already knew and vastly expand my knowledge of techniques I did not know. The book is well organized and easy to understand, not using a lot of jargon. It also talks in specifics about not only the techniques but what tools are needed and how to use them. I highly recommend this book to anyone, from amateur to professional, who wants to learn how jewelry is made or to hone their skills as a maker of jewelry. ... show more

    • Jewelry Making: Tips and Tricks of the Trade
Format: Paperback
Initially, I borrowed this book from a friend with the idea of making a few of the items and then returning the book. It was such a wonderful book that I ordered one for myself. We do a small jewelry business and the ideas are unique, easy to do and are wonderful. The book provides a complete list of supplies and detailed instructions and sketches along with photos of the finished product. I highly recommend this book for anyone with basic jewelry making skills, or novices who want instruction. ... show more

    • Beginner to Intermediate Level Jewelry Design Book
Format: Paperback
Several others have stated that this is a great beginners book and yes, if you have some knowledge of metal and how to manipulate it or are just inituitive with tools and metal. That being said, I would classify it as a beginner to intermediate level jewelry design book that is very handy and has helped me when selecting the appropriate tools when I started out working with metal in 2006. The author first goes over the basic tools required and he knows how costly jewelry making tools can be. So the recommendations are sound and worthy to follow for the beginner. The "Getting Started" section is followed by various lessons to properly learn followed by one or more projects to make utilizing these lessons. Some lessons/projects build upon others, while some are stand alone. Each lesson and project have enough written information with appropriate images (color photos) to help when YOU are doing it for yourself. It would have been nice to have this book in a spirally-bound binding. I do feel that if you master each lesson in this book, you are definitely well on your way to becoming an expert in jewelry making for the confidence you can gain from this books organization is that strong. This type of organization is just like having an instructor working with you. The DESIGN section (only a few pages, unfortunately, in the first section of the book) give you sound suggestions when you are in the process of developing/designing your own pieces. Unfortunately there is NO information on the safety issues involved (I am big on safety...too much training in my former careers - but necessary) and that is a big mark against this book - hence 4 stars. I believe the book's best quotes to sum up how I feel about it is: "We learn by doing!....Always practice on base metals first before turning to precious metals to make your final jewelry piece." (page 21) This is how the book is organized and for those that cannot find a local instructor, use this book. ... show more
