Table of Contents

Description:
The author of our popular Unsigned Beauties of Costume Jewelry has produced a second book in her Beautiful series, this time on signed beauties of costume jewelry. Picking up where her "unsigned" book left off and using her private collection once again, Marcia "Sparkles" Brown shows readers that they, too, can find beauties all around them. Over 800 vivid color photographs make this book shine, with thousands of pieces of common jewelry that collectors can find, not those rare, one-of-a-kind items that are rarely seen.

Over 800 color photos with thousands of pieces of jewelry. Companies and designers featured include Eisenberg, McClelland Barclay, Hattie Carneige, Adele Simpson, Miriam Haskell, Kenneth Jay Lane, Joseff, Marcel Boucher, and more.

PUBLISHER'S REVIEW
This book truly "sparkles" (like the author's name) and would make an ideal gift for costume jewelry fans. Author Marcia "Sparkles" Brown has created the perfect sequel to her previously published Unsigned Beauties of Costume Jewelry with this handsomely produced volume. Thousands of jewelry items are illustrated in over 800 color photographs and are complemented by captions that include descriptions and values. -Adele Kenny
