5.0 out of 5 stars If it Sparkles, If it Shines, Leigh has it Shown, March 2, 2005
This review is from: Rhinestone Jewelry: A Price and Identification Guide (Paperback)
Very informative book on rhinestone jewelry. I own every book in Leigh Leshner's collection and she leaves you wanting for more books to be published. Excellent samples of jewelry; beautiful photography and very informative on jewelry from this vintage. A must for the rhinestone collector.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous Pictures!!, February 26, 2005
This review is from: Rhinestone Jewelry: A Price and Identification Guide (Paperback)
I bought this book to supplement my collection for information on the jewelry I sell on my web site, Atlanta Vintage Jewelry. It's full of excellent pictures on black backgrounds that make the jewelry really stunning.

There are not too many books out there that feature only rhinestone pieces so I found this book to be a great addition. I recommend it to anyone who has an interest in vintage rhinestone brooches or necklaces or earrings . . . or any vintage jewelry.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very informative. Very little organization., July 30, 2006
This review is from: Rhinestone Jewelry: A Price and Identification Guide (Paperback)
I found the opening chapters of this book very informative. However, the section of pictures could use some organization. If there is a pattern to how the pictures are organized, I have yet to discern it. Very few if any dates are attributed so it's not organized chronological. Very few pieces are attributed to designers so that's not it either. Some pages seem to have a theme but are unrelated to the page immediately before or after. It seems like photos were grouped by what would fit on the page.

Great information and the jewelry is very well photographed. If it were better organized, I'd absolutely love it.
