4.0 out of 5 stars Ethnic Jewelry, April 21, 2000
By 
This review is from: Ethnic Jewelry (Hardcover)
The majority of jewelry items in the book are from the British Museum. Experts in the social sciences discuss jewelry traditions around the world.

The photographs are exactly in focus so that you can study the minutest detail. The book is divided into geographic areas - Africa, the Middle East, Asia, the Pacific, and the Americas. A final chapter summarizes materials and techniques used to make the jewelry.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great Dust Jacket !, February 5, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ethnic Jewelry (Hardcover)
The dust jacket is beautiful, too bad the rest of the book doesn't follow through. Most of the photos are boring, and most are not typical examples for the type of jewelry described. The text is sketchy, trying to cover too much diverse information in too few sentences.
