Silver Treasures from the Land of Sheba: Regional Styles of Yemeni Jewelry [Ransom, Marjorie] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Silver Treasures from the Land of Sheba: Regional Styles of Yemeni Jewelry

Review: Gorgeous Photos, Remarkable Insight - In Silver Treasures from the Land of Sheba, author Marjorie Ransom has produced a remarkable book of historical scholarship, chronicling a culture not only unknown to most Westerners, but also fast disappearing. But her greatest achievement in this decades long quest is to write a charming, readable book that introduces us to a host of memorable people, from the talented jewelers whose work is becoming a lost art, to the old village women with stories to tell, who bring forth their little daughters to model jewelry for the author's photographs. Marjorie Ransom's encyclopedic knowledge of jewelry styles and regions, coupled with her understanding and cultural sensitivity and obvious respect for the land and the people of Yemen gives her readers an insight obtainable nowhere else. Lavishly illustrated with her own photographs and the stunning photos of jewelry and costumes by Ornament magazine's Robert K. Liu, the book offers hours of pleasure to ethnographers, historians, and most of all, lovers of simply gorgeous jewelry. I look forward to reading the companion volume in which she will discuss the remarkable and vanishing jewelers who create these treasures.
Review: Fantastic book - Excellent book. So glad I was able to find a copy. Lots of details and pictures of the beautiful jewelry of Yemen. Highly recommend!!

Anyone who has been to a silver souk in the intriguing country of Yemen knows how intricate and unique the craftsmanship of each hand-made piece is. I so appreciate having this book for its stunning photos and the research that has gone into producing it. A treasure in itself.
