    This book provides beginning collectors with friendly one-on-one advice on how to begin a collection and how to recognize good quality costume jewelry. Background information for almost 130 different manufacturers, including the author's recommendations on which pieces from each designer are the most collectible, are provided. Over 750 color photographs of costume jewelry that is within the means of most collectors are featured. There are also tips on how to upgrade a collection by selling to dealers, selling on eBay, and trading with friends; tips on how to catalog a collection using a spread sheet or a notebook; and tips on repairing, storing, and cleaning jewelry. A glossary of jewelry terms and an index of patent and design numbers round out the book. 2004 values. REVIEW: This book is a companion to the Standard Encyclopedia of Carnival Glass, 9th Edition, but can also stand alone as a handy reference guide to take along on your glass searches. Thousands of patterns, from Absentee Dragon to Zip Zip, are included, with all available colors and values listed.

    Reader Reviews
    Love the book! I found it to be an excellent resource with over 750 colored crisp photographs and 130 manufacturers/designers featured. It is filled with detailed background information on the manufacturers and recommendations on pieces that are most collectible. It covers designers like Weiss, Trifari, Coro and Kramer but then goes into top designers like Schreiner, Schiaparelli, Hobe', Haskell and the list goes on! I carry the book with me everywhere! The information in this book has assisted me in picking up gorgeous pieces to add to my collection. It is a must have book! Deborah Reece
