  • Warman's costume jewelry identification books are detailed and informative...

    I can't tell you how helpful the Warman's costume jewelry guide books have been for me. I now have about 5 of them and this one was again, no disappointment. I haven't made way through the entire book yet because I purchased two of them, but so far, I love the pictures, the jewelry pieces, the descriptions and all the information. It covers designers, pictures of their jewelry and help in identifying their pieces when not signed. I could go on and on and bore you to tears, but I will just say if you are on the fence due to price, I can tell you this is well worth the investment and you will learn so much costume jewelry information.

  • Pictures of hardware when dating jewelry sold this book!

    I purchased the book to help with identifying the age of a piece based on the hardware. I was very pleased as it had more pictures than a couple other books I had. The pictures of the jewelry were clear and distinct. I am enjoying my newly purchased resource. :)

  • Love it!

    Info contained has saved me from making several mistakes, the first week, by knowing approximate value. Found a few items I already have are worth much more than I paid for them. Learned much more about what to watch for when attending estate sales. Highly recommend for new collectors or those who have inherited some family costume jewelry.
