DAVID BENNETT, DANIELA MASCETTI - Understanding Jewellery

Title: Understanding Jewellery
Description: Antique Collectors' Club, 2000. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 425. This text includes revised prices, over 90 new colour illustrations and an additional chapter on jewellery of the 1960s and 1970s. It brings together in one volume identification, dating and valuation of jewellery. There are many colour illustrations which facilitate identification and understanding. The text is written in straightforward, non-technical English.nThe authors, Sotheby's jewellery experts, evaluate many millions of pounds worth annually and thus handle a complete cross-section of what is available on the market. They have specially selected the 833 colour illustrations to show what to look for and, equally important, what to avoid.nThis essentially practical book is unique in explaining why values vary and the individual points important for each category. A major section is devoted to the identification of the major gemstones and the testing methods to assess quality and detect fakes. ISBN: 9781851492053. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
