I was so happy with this book, it more than met my expectations. Beautiful jewellery beautifully photographed, a real feast for the eyes. The narration I also found really interesting, history and ingenuity colliding to make some of the most beautiful jewels ever made. So glad I made the purchase.

The jewelry is fabulous of course. I found it heavy on the history and some of the details since it's all about the gems and fabulous settings. Someone offered to take it off my hands but no. It is an older print but a keeper. I would buy it again.

This book is spectacular. If you or someone you know loves jewelry, please get them this book. The photos and sketches are stunning. A must-have book for any jewelry lover.

see my comment on the most helpful review. it is a great book. I also bought Cartier by Hans Nadelhoffer. It cannot be compared to this book.

I have been interested in the science of jewelry for 40 years, and am a metalsmith as well. I have been collecting books for many years, and this is one of the best. In addition to having wonderful color photographs, space has been given to showing the back of major pieces, to show construction and craftsmanship. The book is well organized to show the progression of design by the house of Bvlgari, from beginning to current day. If you are serious about jewelry, this book will provide many hours of enjoyment, and will be an excellent reference book for style research.

I was pleasently surprised when I recieved this book. When I looked over the discription of the book I thought I'd enjoy it but didn't know just how much until it came. The images are beautiful, full color and the discriptions are well done. This book gives a great overview of the design house Bulgari. I would recommind this book to anyone interested in learning about Bulgari or if you are just a lover of beautiful jewelry.

What a beautiful book. I appreciated the jewellery before but this book is a lovely way to see how it is made, the desiging and the creating stages. The photographs alone make it a worthwhile investment. As a jewellery appreciator, I think it's a wonderful addition to my library. I don't get to see these pieces up close so this is a wonderful way to expand apreciation and understanding of jewellery.
