A Jewelry Making Class in Book Form!
Despite its relative compactness, this book really packs a creative punch. Filled with clear pics and informative captions, there is little doubt that Elizabeth Olver's work will be of tremendous help to anyone with the desire, some tools, and a dash of creativity to start making beautiful art jewelry. I love this book and think it should be a part of most any metalsmith's library. :)Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
