This unique book is the first to encourage wearing investment quality collectible and antique jewelry with today's casual fashions. The historical background for each type of jewelry featured is presented, along with almost 300 detailed color photographs and prices. Jewelry categories include costume, Native American, copper, and Mexican jewelry, all crafted between 1925 and the mid-1970s. In addition, unlike any other book on the market, the author presents full-color fashion photographs of actual models displaying today's clothes combined with samples from each category of jewelry. The book illustrates how the jewels personalize and add flair to both modern, mass-produced clothing and the currently hot vintage styles. Historical text, suggestions and advice for collecting investment jewelry, a complete value guide, and hundreds of color photographs make this an indispensable book. This will be the first book of its kind, demonstrating how to acquire investment quality jewelry and add diversity to an investment portfolio, and showing the investment potential of these miniature works of art. Publisher's Review: In this book you will learn what sets this jewelry apart, what kinds to look for, and how to take care of each type. Then there are photographs of the jewelry and the fashion look that can result from the combination of simple clothing and collectible jewels. You will see how easy it is to achieve a polished appearance, and how your vintage jewelry can be enjoyed both as an investment and as a piece of wearable art.Payment Methods AvailableCheck, Money Order, Visa/MasterCard, Discover, PayPal.Shipping and Handling Cost: $3.76About UsCollector Bookstore the internet's leading retailer of reference books for the collecting community.
