The Journal of Indian Art is still one of the most consulted books on Indian jewellery. It is an authentic source for scholars and collectors who are engaged with traditional Indian jewellery or ancient techniques. The original of Indian Jewellery was edited in 1909 by Thomas Holbein Hendley, comprising Nos. 95-107 of The Journal of Indian Art. The picture plates of this book show native ornaments of British India, demonstrating the vast of Indian jewellery in the eight provinces at the end of the nineteenth century. Examples of the jewellery of past civilizations of Asia and Europe were added for consideration of the history and development of the different styles. The book s illustrations and descriptions of old Indian royal and peasant ornaments are of unaltered interest now, one hundred years later. During this past period, new developments and designs of jewellery have come up, frequently based on the old traditions. The centenary reprint edition of Indian Jewellery was therefore supplemented with photographs of recent Indian jewellery, as an attempt to present revival pieces that are still en vogue after one hundred years, as well as to show examples of new developments which were manufactures after the old style, yet with modifications and adaptations, answering to a modernized taste and demand.

Enduring Splendor written by Thomas K. Seligman and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017 with Crafts & Hobbies categories.
Enduring Splendor focuses on the rich and diverse silver jewelry traditions of India's Thar Desert region, stretching across the western states of Rajasthan and Gujarat. These traditions are considered against the background of the five-thousand-year history of jewelry making across the vast Indian Subcontinent. Drawing on recent field research carried out in the city of Jaisalmer, a thriving center of contemporary jewelry production, Enduring Splendor explores for the first time the life and work of four sonis (silversmiths or goldsmiths). To contextualize this recent production, numerous illustrations of very fine examples of ninteenth- and twentieth-century jewelry types that are still worn are included. These objects have been borrowed from the Ronald and Maxine Linde Collection of Jewelry and Ritual Arts of India, part of a promised gift to UCLA, where it will find its future home with the Fowler Museum. The Linde Collection is one of the finest and most comprehensive collections of Indian jewelry in the world. This volume highlights elaborate rural styles rendered in silver as well as selected ornate examples, largely associated with the elite, made with gold and gemstones.
