Aiming to spotlight areas of collectability—mainly from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries—which are available to enthusiasts today, this is an important study of both well-known and forgotten jewelry fashions and trends. Each chapter—there are 22 in this second edition—concentrates on a specific topic, but there is a comprehensive cross-referencing to other chapters. Almost every item shown has been on the market in recent years. No other jewelry book reflects the antique jewelry market or collectors’ enthusiasms in quite the same way. Among the types of jewelry covered are diamond brooches, coral 19th-century gold work, piqué, silver jewels, cameos and intaglios, mosaics, Edwardian pendants, and unusual materials. "Theme" jewelry is another area described with an amazing variety of representations of animals or flowers, as well as Victorian Scottish jewelry and 19th-century archaeological revival jewels inspired by the goldwork of the Greeks, Etruscans, or ancient Egyptians. The work of individual artist-jewelers, who played such an important part in the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements, is documented, along with the glamorous, highly sought after jewels created by the great jewel houses like Cartier, Tiffany, Falize, and Van Cleef & Arpels. Finally the important "movements"—Arts and Crafts; Art Nouveau, including Liberty’s huge output; and Art Deco—are assessed. Newly added is a chapter on Retro Modern—the cocktail jewelry for the 1940s—the best of which has become eminently collectable.

Excerpt from Antique Jewellery and Trinkets The favourable reception accorded to the two first volumes of the "Home Connoisseur" Series - Antique Furniture and Old Pottery and Porcelain - assures me that there are many who will welcome this volume, which treats upon a subject which is interesting to every home connoisseur. There is a peculiar charm about the jewellery of former generations, those things men and women have treasured and worn, or fondly handled as having had personal touch with those who died long ago. Many of the curios displayed in drawing-room and in cabinets are relics of the prehistoric dead; objects which although not jewels as we understand them, were the ornaments they wore and the things they reverenced. There is a touch of sadness about the thought of rifling the tombs of past ages, and of looted palaces and homes destroyed; yet all these factors have contributed to the supply of antique jewellery and trinkets now treasured in the modern home. It is in the old jewel-box, however, that there are found the relics of more recent times, and many of the pieces of gold and silver jewellery, and flashing stones in their quaint settings, can be worn to-day - for now is the day of replicas and the reproduction of the antiques of all ages. Happy indeed are those who possess genuine antiques: Careful examination of museum exhibits, the varied assortment of antique jewels in dealers stocks, and those that have fallen under the hammer from time to time, has enabled me to gather much useful information about these curios so varied, the work of man in past ages and of almost every civilised nation in more recent times.
