Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

“Antique Jewellery and Trinkets” is a fantastic guide to the history of jewellery and related crafts, exploring the development and variety of jewellery throughout the ages. This vintage book is ideal for those looking for an introduction to antique jewellery, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: “In The Beginning”, “Gold, Silver and Other Metals”, “The Jeweller's Art”, “Craftsmanship”, “Guilds, and the Influence They Exercise”, “The Engraver”, “Prehistoric Ornaments”, “Egyptian and Assyrian Jewellery”, “Greek: Etruscan: Phoenician”, “Celtic Gold”, “Roman Art”, “Anglo-Saxon Gold and Silver”, “Gem-Cutting”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of jewellery and jewellery making.

Reseña del editor:

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
