Description

Jewellery making is now more popular than ever before. You no longer need to be a professional to learn the practice of this classic craft and The Complete Jewellery Maker will provide you with the skill, confidence and
inspiration to design and create beautiful pieces of jewellery with a
professional finish.


The Complete Jewellery Maker provides over 100 essential projects and techniques for anyone interested in learning to make jewellery and provides practising jewellers with a great resource for extending their skills.

This book covers everything from basic tools and
materials, setting up a workshop and health and safety through to advanced
jewellery making techniques and the principles of designing your own
pieces. A range of projects are provided, designed to develop jewellery-making skills starting with a simple hat pin using basic techniques, progressing to more complex pieces such as a spiral filigree necklace. All projects are explained with
easy-to-follow instructions and step-by-step colour illustrations. A must-have guide for jewellery makers of all levels.
