Rhinestones! A collectors Handbook & Price Guide,
By Lindalee Anderson (St. Pete Beach, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rhinestones!: A Collector's Handbook & Price Guide (Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Paperback)
A very good book for the rhinestone jewelery collector, although quiet concentrated on the "big" names, especially de Lillo. Very interesting historical background pertaining to origin of the trade and numerous, excellent quality photographs.
