1.0 out of 5 stars Prestigious jewellery? YES. Prestigious book? NO!, December 31, 2000

This review is from: Great Jewelry of the World (Paperback)

What an absolute waste of your money. The book is just a collection of brochures taken from all the Haute Joaillerie Houses all over the world, bundle them together and sell it for a hardcover price. The photos are nevertheless breathtaking and, ofcourse, a feast for your eyes. The text is like a salesman in training.

2.0 out of 5 stars Advertising by the pound?, May 9, 1998

This review is from: Great Jewelry of the World (Paperback)

The alliance of a cheap deals-minded person with, a devoted advertorialist copywriter should produce a very efficient pamphlet for jewelry companies in search of recognition (unfortunatly great Jewelry houses will realize it later on...) This book will be certainly used to display current(?) and complete(?)collections, trends and other over and over covered subjects about fashion and trends... Can and will readers learn something out of sterile press releases compilations?
