Title: Jewelry Concepts and Technology by Oppi Untracht ISBN: 0-7091-9616-4 Publisher: Trafalgar Square Pub. Date: 01 May, 1996 Format: Hardcover List Price(USD): $120.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.8 (15 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: This is the best jewelry technology book I've seen
Comment: Untracht presents an encyclopedic guide to jewelry making processes. There are many color and black and white photos and illustrations. These alone are worth its price.
With both design and fabrication issues covered in great detail this book could provide the primary text for one's education in this subject. It makes a great companion text to his other classic book, "Metal Techniques for Craftsmen".

Summary: The most complete jewelry techniques book available
Comment: Oppi's classic work covers jewelry techniques the world over and you won't find a more comphrehensive book available. Many step by step demonstrations by world known jewelers. Well written and photographed. The only shortcoming of this book is that its not up to date as it was published in the 80's and is missing information on current jewelry technology. Despite this fact its still sold for a rather high price tag which personally I find annoying. In my opinion the book should be priced more in the 50 dollar range. I wish Oppi would update this book as alot has happened in the field since its publishing date. Still, this is a highly recommended book and am glad that its in my reference library....Dave Stephens, Art Jewele

Summary: Reference must
Comment: I had been told by many people how great it was, but not until I had a copy in my own hand did I realize how much is covered, how easy it is to follow the techniques, and how grateful I am to have it. I bought my copy as new from a used book seller (A1) and received it in a timely fashion and in perfect condition.
