This review is from: Cameos: Classical to Costume (A Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Hardcover)
Expectations of visual and historical information for this expensive book should be high. But exceptionally poor photography and lack of any rigorous understanding of the history of jewelry and design in the text from these authors rate this book a tepid two stars only. It should have been better, coming from this antique specialty publisher, since it is a facinating subject, and there isn't much available in print.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too expensive and not comprehensive, July 27, 2006
By 
This review is from: Cameos: Classical to Costume (A Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Hardcover)
It definitely should have been better! Pictures and info lack any real knowledge of the subject, and often times just had wrong information. Very disappointed. A big book with little value to me.

1.0 out of 5 stars The cover of the book has scratches and looks used., February 8, 2010

The quality of the book is very bad its looks like it has been used already.

I am not happy with the book and was going to send it back. Although when I checked the price to send it back and found it was AUD30 i have decided not to send it back. It is not worth paying $30 to send it back.
Very disappointed.
