Jewelry has always been an appreciated art form, a necessary adornment--a defining fashionable element in uniform wardrobe dressing. Originally created to mimic genuine jewelry worn by the upper class, a fad item able to be affordably renewed with each season, a new found appreciation for costume jewelry is emerging as a work of art--brilliant, beautiful, and highly collectible. A must-have for collectors and fashion lovers, this book showcases the beautiful, elegant, whimsical, and figural of costume jewelry--all in full-color. Gorgeous pins, necklaces, brooches, bracelets and bangles, earrings, and rings, both signed and unsigned treasures are displayed in more than 500 breathtaking photographs.

More Costume Jewelry from Leigh Leshner,
This review is from: Costume Jewelry (Paperback)
Another beautiful book for collectors of costume jewelry by Leshner. The pictures are mouth watering and the topics digress from earlier books that are solely devoted to rhinestone jewelry. This book includes other types of jewelry like plastic jewelry, silver and beads. The vintages go through the 1960s with a good sampling of many styles. Leshner produces some of the very best books on collectible costume jewelry available that are a joy to look at as well as educational for the collector.

One of the books I use for reference that is accurate and easy to understand. Selling estate jewelry and knowledge of jewelry pieces is a must!
