The Complete Book of Jewelry Making: A Full-Color Introduction to the Jeweler's Art Paperback – August 28, 2006

The Complete Book of Jewelry Making: A Full Color Introduction to the Jeweler's Art is an exceptional book, well written and illustrated. You are introduced to some techniques I have not found anywhere elce in my 30 or so jewelery making books. I was very impressed. I would reccomend it to anyone requardless of their skill level. The instruction simplified some advanced techniques I had been afraid to try. I loved the book. The quality of the color photographs makes it also an interesting coffee table book. This is an Amazon verified purchase.

If you're interested in jewelry-making, try this book FIRST! It has much better illustrations than Tim McCreight's Metalsmithing book and is much more complete than Nicola Hurst's Step by Step project book.Not only is this book a complete and extremely well-written guide to the jeweler's art, it's packed with photos of truly original jewelry that will inspire a new way of thinking about jewelry.This is a fun book just to flip through like a coffeetable book, but it's also hands down the best jewelry-making instruction manual I've found.The best.

I was fascinated by this book and now have a knowledge far greater than I could have imagined. It is well written and the content is a must for anyone wanting to actually make/create their own jewelry rather than just put already made pieces together. I highly recommend it.Reachout007

Very nice pictures but the instructions were to complex for beginners to use.

I started to Design Jewelry last year (2010), and as of 5 months ago (June) I started to make Jewelry. I have learned so much since acquiring this book!!! :DThis is really one of those books designed to get you enthusiastic about working in the craft, even if some of the techniques are not for the beginner.Thank You, Mr. Carles Codina for bringing this awesome book into my life!

I am a rank beginner and I thought this book was good. This is a great new hobby but not the cheapest one I ever saw. However, with the help of the experts in these books, I have made some really pretty pieces.

Haven’t read the whole book. But it’s good. Lots of illustrations.

I found this book great for novices. I found the reading short and to the point. It also have projects in it to get hands on experience. I recommend this to everyone.
