Bedazzled: 5000 Years of Jewelry----The Walters Art Museum

I bought the book to use as inspiration for the jewelry I make. I enjoy the history of my favorite art, Beading, and it is interesting to see the timelessness of the designs as well as the artistry and technique for the ancient times.

This book is little~so that title and size don't match, but the book is good~or so my jewelery loving friend that I gave it to said.

but lightweight text.

Although this is a small book it is full of beautiful photos of gorgeous antique jewelry. I believe the jewels within are part of a collection displayed in the Walters art museum. The goldwork throughout is simply beautiful.

Good edition, very good pictures, pocket size, I was expecting little bit more information, but still good.

got this book for my personal collection; great condition; appeared to have never been opened, not comprehensive for thorough study, but representative

I received the item on time and in wonderful condition but was very disappointed by the book itself. Its VERY small and all the 5000 years of jewelry was just from one private collector. I thought there would be more information and definitely more of a history. I would not recommend this book to anyone. But not the fault of Amazon :)

Great book an inspiration!

Fantastic photos and information - a book I have re-read and thoroughly enjoy

Not really what I was hoping for, not a large amount of pictures of jewelry or history of different cultures like I expected. Item was in good condition and shipped quick though.
