The ultimate guide for the experimental jeweller, this complete how-to offers detailed instructions and clear photographs for working with all kinds of materials.

Preceded by a helpful introduction offering guidance on essential tools and inspirational advice for self-designed projects, the main section is organised by material or media, providing details on the properties and possibilities for each as well as some inspiring examples of jewellery made using the techniques described.
