4.0 out of 5 stars Handy!, 11 Feb 2004
The other reviewer seems to have their wires crossed a bit - this isnt the book which splits in half, that's "Jewellery" by Madeline Coles. This one is equally good though! Liz Oliver teaches at St Martin's College in london and this shines through in her explanations - so many books tell you to do something without thoroughly explaining it but this one follows every technique step by step, and there's everything from how to solder to how to make a box catch. Each technique has a list of materials and tools which you'll need and the accompanying colour photos guide you through very well.

4.0 out of 5 stars How many books by Liz now?!, 27 Sep 2004
By A Customer
No wonder Liz has produced so many books, when I was a student at Central and Liz the technician, I was lucky if she'd spare me a minute of her time, she was that busy at her bench with her own work she could hardly pull herself away. However, all her books are really clear and concise in both techniques and design concepts, as well as info on inspiration. This book is a good basic manual of simple projects, well laid out with good sharp photos. I lent my copy to someone and never got it back, so here I am ordering it again. I think her books are friendly and inspiring and really fill a gap in the market.

1.0 out of 5 stars Good for basic and intermediate jewellery makers, 18 Jan 2004
By A Customer
This book is ideal for those interested in making their own jewellery, the book literally splits into two setions which enable you to be working on a project while opening the bottom section that desribes the techniques required for the project. Many of the techniques used to make silver rings, earings and necklaces are described in a easy to understand format, along with patterns for some of the items, which can be photocopied or traced to use on your own project.
A must if you are serious about your hobby.
