Antique Jewellery
But which book to buy in case you are living within the UK?
There are hundreds of reference books to select from and most have been written inside the US by authors who have a collection based within the US.
Actually you will discover far more than 12 books here, because some authors have written much more than one book which is useful.
What do we properly call a piece of old jewelery — antique, vintage or second hand?
Antique is usually a term employed when jewelery or any other artifact is a minimum of a hundred years old.
Edwardian jewelery is also now antique. Edward V11 lived from 1841 to 1910 a short reign (1901 — 1910) but you’ll see jewelery marked as Edwardian.
This guide need to cover general unsigned pieces and some signed pieces of jewellery. However there are no certain books ever written for the majority of the mass produced signed costume jewellery created by UK corporations or created for the UK marketplace apart from Wilson and Butler.
The term vintage just isn’t so nicely defined. Some sources state that an item known as vintage is at the very least 20 years old and some take 25 years because the vintage period. Looking at this in actual year terms – which is items manufactured prior to 1989 or 1984 respectively.
1. Costume Jewellery: A Collectors Guide by Caroline Behr (Miller’s) (ISBN 1-84000-373-1)
A excellent place to commence having a basic over view and time line from Victorian, Art Deco, Arts and Crafts, 1950s, Czech, Austrian and some designers. Easy to read and has beneficial photographs. Hand bag size and perfect to read on the train
2. Vintage Costume Jewellery: A Passion for fabulous Fakes by Carol Tanenbaum (ISBN 1-85149-511-8)
Bit challenging to essentially date items so exact, for example a brooch, to the actual year of manufacture. Hence many folks will only take items dating up towards the seventies as vintage. But time is moving on as nicely as the eighties is now being additional and a lot more placed as being inside the vintage classification.
So that signifies that second hand or utilized are items that date from the eighties to present day. No problem with this dating however it is among the most underused terms.
Loads of superior photographs but none of the backs (a need to for identification but rarely included in any book)
3. Secrets To Collecting Jewelry: The way to BUY MORE for less! by Leigh Leshner (ISBN 0-89689-180-1)
Again a time line and over view via history but an absolute gem of a book because it has shows the backs and mechanism or findings that are essential to dating jewellery. This book looks at style and materials with particular photographs. Prom jewellery, art plastic, retro, manufacturing methods, Scandinavian, cameos. Mostly brief details but a really good visual guide. US book with $ price guide (2005). Another fabulous book to read on the bus or train as fits into your bag.
4. Jewels and Jewellery Clare Phillips (V & A) (ISBN 978-1-85177-535-4) or Jewellery: The Decorative Arts Library edited by Janet Swarbrick (ISBN 1-902328-13-2)
This understandably leads to complications for both the buyer and the seller on the internet, because:
Could not choose which of these UK books was probably the most informative. So have I have included both
Jewels and Jewellery contains materials, a chronology of styles and manufacturing and distribution. Photographs of museum and pieces. Includes silver filigree, Berlin Iron, pearls, glass and enamel. Faith jewellery, cut steel, mourning and adore jewellery not just jet or bog oak. Lalique, Ashbee, Liberty Cymric, Wilson, Gaskins along with a time line pre Victorian towards the 2000s.
Jewellery is really a visual celebration of the world’s terrific jewellery generating techniques. From the ancient globe till 1989. Full of information and facts and photographs with a lot more specific references to Jewellery inside the UK.

Three decades of jewellery showing style and political trends that influenced the designs. Well illustrated with pieces which are recognizable here within the UK. Such as Mod jewellery, eastern influence, Pop Art, novelty, revival pieces, like beads, Art Metal, jade, plastic, wood and pave. The author has produced other reference books on other decades which are well worth investing in.
6. Collecting Art Plastic Jewelry by Leigh Leshner (ISBN 0-87349-954-9)
Bakelite is rare to obtain in jewellery in such quantities and assortment as in the States. It is helpful to recognize and see the range of designs plastic has been applied or with other materials. Celluloid, Lucite, thermoset, thermoplastic, laminated, reverse carved are additional commonly discovered here within the UK and very easily over looked. This book does make you look at plastic accessories in a complete new light. Does not include adequate facts on galalith, the early plastic form that’s a lot more frequent in the UK. For this read books on Jakob Bengel.
