For more than 200 years, buyers and sellers have sought advise from Christie's specialists. For the first time, Christie's shares this knowledge in an easy-to-use guide to jewelry with stunning color... This description may be from another edition of this product.
It covers the main styles (and calls edwardian belle epoque, which is really confusing - the styles and their various names in various parts of the world and the chronological overlapping is killing me.. i'd love to find it in a neat table :)), main gems (ruby, emerald, sapphire, diamond) and includes some REALLY neat photograps of gems and a few important pieces of jewellery. Nice book for a gem / jewellery aficionado to have.
