A Sweeping, Successful Overview of Collectible Silver Jewelry

I was very happy with this book. I have been collecting for 22 years. I have been a vintage jewelry dealer for just a few years. This is the book I open the most when buying, researching and selling anything silver. Organized by geographic origin, each chapter gives you a rich overview of styles, eras, hallmarks, makers' marks, quality, estimated value and more... Love this book.

Terrific resource!

I was looking for a book to help with identifying Mexican jewelry marks. This book went beyond just Mexican silver on to US, Scandanavian, British and other types of silver. It was exactly what I was looking for.

Fred Really Knows His Stuff!!

As a vintage jewelry dealer (Atlanta Vintage Jewelry dot com), I was in need of great reference material for silver jewelry. This book filled the bill nicely. 'Collectible Silver Jewelry' is chock full of excellent information on silver sources from around the world. Rezazadeh informs the reader about makers, designers, marks, methods, and history. Excellent pictures. This book should be on the shelf of anyone who has an interest in vintage jewelry of the silver kind.

A "GUIDED TOUR" THROUGH THE WORLD OF SILVER JEWELRY

Mr. Rezazadeh "strikes gold" AGAIN with yet another sumptuous book about jewelry. His latest is replete with comprehensive, instructive text and a wide array of detailed photographs of silver jewelry items from virtually every decade in the 20th Century, including the many countries in which silver jewelry is hand-wrought or manufactured. I purchased this book about a month ago, and have yet to read about the many manufacturers and techniques which Mr. Rezazadeh has included. This book is WELL worth the price. Every true SILVER jewelry afficionado will add this "gem" to his/her collection with sheer delight!

Fred Rezazadeh's New Book

Fred Rezazadeh must be an authority on the subject & the book shows it. Notions are simple and clear, treatment of the subject matter is balanced and professional, and it is all well documented. With the exception of a few, the color pictures-- & there are 100's of them-- are appropiately dimensioned & are of high quality. This book is a must for silver jewlery collectors & those who may have any interest in the subject matter.
