    5.0 out of 5 stars Golden Oldie but Goodie!, March 3, 2008
    This review is from: Antique Jewelry: A Practical & Passionate Guide (Paperback)
    What a pleasure it is to write a review of this beautiful book. I originally read this book when it was first published. I was new to antique jewelry and had a million questions. This book is just an indispensible guide for those starting out. Her knowledge is solid, as is her advice (avoid broken, shop around, if you love it buy it!) I know many self-proclaimed experts that would benefit from reading this book. All the basics, well written and organized. BUY IT!

    This review is from: Antique Jewelry: A Practical & Passionate Guide (Paperback)
    I was so eager to have this book. I read the review here at Amazon and couldn't wait to get it. There are so many books on the market that have better information, better pictures. This book is a big disappointment
