The definative beadwork book..., August 16, 2005
This review is from: Iskusstvo biseropleteniia: Sovremennaia shkola (Russian Edition)
I would consider this to be the holy grail of beadwork books, if it were not only avalible in Russian. Even with the language barrier it is pretty close to perfect. There are some really amazing project ideas in it (pictures), as well as amazing pictorial step by step instructions. It is possible to follow the pictures easily even without being able to read the text. Its perfect for more experianced beaders, but not for beginners(unles they read russian) where some written text and tips to follow would be useful for them.

The "White Russian Beading Book", July 3, 2007
This review is from: Iskusstvo biseropleteniia: Sovremennaia shkola (Russian Edition)
You do not need to know Russian to use this book. If you have a familiarity with beading, you can learn lots of new stitches and designs just by looking at the clear bead diagrams.
The long tradition of beading in Russia is shared with the world in this book. Your imagination is the only limit to what you can make from this book. If you like beading, you need this book.
I cannot believe that it is not available any longer. I think it was reprinted in Russian at least once.
