Costume Jewelers by Joanne Dubbs Ball (2000, Hardcover)

What's likable about this book? Comprehensive review of the founders and styles of each designer, including ones not as popular in antique shops or ebay like Les Benard, Jeanne, Mazer Jomaz, etc. What to dislike? Book was published in 2000, so values of the pieces today are different than prices of 2000. This book is not a good price guide (stick to Antique Trader type books). Overall, its a great book to have in your collection. I've found it useful for identifying varied jewelers hallmarks or jewelers I was not familiar with. I will keep this book in my collection.
