Unsigned Beauties of Costume Jewelry by Marcia Sparkles Brown (2000, Hardcover, Revised)

I belong to a newly formed Vintage Costume Jewelry Group. As a new member and collector, this book gives me information about many of the old designers and their styles. It has many great color pictures along with other valuable information. The leader of my Vintage Jewelry Group recommended this book to us and I have found it worth every cent. I will sit with it in the evening and go thru it again and again and everytime I do I find something new that I haven't seen before.

I have always collected jewelry, this book really helps you to see what you have even if it is unsigned. Simply love this book!

No matter how many signed pieces of jewelery I find, I'm always buying other shiny, sparkly unsigned things I can't resist. This book gives me a good resource for an estimated value. Very helpful plus wonderful photos to look at!

This is a very good book for the Costume Jewelry Collector. It has hundreds of unsigned pieces and the value of each. I bought this book because I buy and sell costume jewelry and I have a book for signed pieces. I have a lot of pieces that are unsigned so I needed to know what they are worth. This book has helped me tremendously. I highly recomend this book.

Loved the fact there are lots of pictures of all different types of jewelry. Easy reading. Will be a good guide to have around.

I have all of Marcia "Sparkles" Browns books on jewelry and this one is by far the best. I have this book and I'm buying this copy for my good friend who is also in to Vintage Jewelry. The pictures in this book are excellent and very clear. The descriptions are very good also. It's helped me with my wording when listing jewelry. I refer back to it again and again. I just love the fact that it has all the unsigned pieces in it. It's a GREAT book and I'm sure if you buy it you will agree. Worth every penny!!! Joan Walker NC

This is an excellent book for the serious vintage jewelry collector. Very easy read and tons of very useful information. I have nearly 2 dozen books on vintage jewelry and many aren't worth your time. This is a must have!
