1 comments about Charles Horner of Halifax: A Celebration of His Life and Work.
- If you're going to collect, or already collect hatpins, you should have this book. It is just as informative and interesting as Lillian's books(if you collect you know who she is). This book gives the best history and pictorial history of hatpin manufacturing available. A most valuable quide for those who really enjoy the period hatpin and it's history. Foremost, you never know when you're going to get lucky enough to buy an authentic Charles Horner pin, and when you do-You'll know all about it's travels!

1 comments about Diamonds (The Fred Ward Gem Book).
- I just finished reading the Fred Ward books "Diamonds" and "Rubies and Sapphires" in his gem series, and I was very pleasantly surprised. These books are entertaining as well as informative, and found myself telling obscure facts about the different gemstones to my friends and family. I was in the market for a ring with my fiance, and so found the books particularly insightful. Along with the writing, the color photography was absolutely sinful, with the most striking pictures of jewelry I have ever seen. Breathtaking. Definitely a must read, even if you think you aren't that interested in gems in the first place. I did think that the price of the books was exceedingly high, however, and I wish they would market them as an entire collection instead of just the separate books.
But all in all, wonderful read!

3 comments about Earrings: From Antiquity to the Present.
- As as jewelry designer, I am continuously researching the history of design. In building a library of references I have been very selective in my acquisitions for inspiration and research. This book is a wonderful history of design with exceptional photographs and bibliography. The section at the back with biographical annotations of designers of note is as precious, for me, as the photos and text of the book. I highly recommend this one!
- Beautiful book with very pretty pictures! I was very pleased when I received it and I highly recommend it to antique jewelry fans!
- This book was recommended to me by my antique jewelry dealer. It is a treasure-trove of historical information with fabulous pictures and descriptions. Whether you are a collector or simply an admirer, you will not be disappointed in this well-researched book.
