5.0 out of 5 stars A book for those who think they have nothing more to learn, 21 Dec 2006

By	M. Callaghan "Martic" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I own an impressive library of jewellery books but only a few are worth holding on to. This is one of them. This is a book for the serious jeweller with professional techniques and absolute attention to detail.
Here is an author who not only knows her business inside out but is able to pass on her techniques faultlessly with many clear illustrations and explanations. It's almost like having your jewellery teacher looking over your shoulder and reminding you to file your wire ends.
There are so many books out there on the subject of jewellery making and an awful lot of them seem to have been written by complete beginners and feature jewellery which could have been made by a 5 year old. This is a truly professional book for making saleable jewellery yet still using only basic equipment.
I use this book for reference again and again and I highly recommend it to budding jewellers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this book!, 26 Mar 2008

By	Hazel Cryostat (skipton, UK) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent book on wire jewellery - the first section is all basic techniques (making jump rings, S links, bead links) then there are slightly more advanced techniques such as making clasps (a thing I'd never thought of doing myself, but it's so easy following these directions!)

Then the second section shows how to put these techniques into practice on jewellery items, and the items shown are easily customised to your own taste, simply by using different beads.

The best part is you don't need any special equipment! Just a set of pliers, some wire, some beads and maybe a hammer but I didn't find I needed it. After I'd finished the basic techniques for practice, when I made my first jewellery piece it looked amazing!

Definitely go for this book if you're a beginner wanting a challenge, and want visible results instantly. Great tips, great jewellery - I can't fault it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beading brilliant, 28 Mar 2008

By	Dee "Deebabe" (London, UK) - See all my reviews

This book has got it all unlike other jewellery books which show the designs at the beginning. This book is divided into 2 sections. The 1st section teaches the tips & techniques of wire work. The 2nd section deals with how to put the previous section into making actual jewellery, it is like a solved jig saw puzzle & the results are so impressive.

I like Linda Jones book as well but wish Bead on a Wire was my 1st book Sharilyn Miller offers much detailed explanation.

The best so far for anyone interested in Wire jewellery. My only gripe is that she finishes most of the jewellery in sulphur (aged looking jewellery) which lets some of the designs down, I would have loved to see more silver & may be gold.
