Artists have constantly pushed the envelope of this versatile medium; these pages showcase their innovative techniques along with gorgeous work that’s sure to inspire. And no previous jewelry-making experience is needed! All the basics are beautifully laid out, from an overview of the variety of available papers to an exploration of techniques. Easy-to-follow how-to photos clarify each step. Best of all are the stunning projects, including Yael Friedman’s simple diamond” solitaire rings; K. Dana Kagrise’s elegant white bracelet made from vellum; and Dorthea Hosom’s brooches that feature sophisticated collages.
