Beadwork, a World Guide by Caroline Crabtree and Pam Stallebrass
Hard cover, 208 pages with over 600 color photos, published by Rizzoli International Press
This stunning and comprehensive book starts with an introduction followed by a discussion of European and Asian bead manufacturing centers.
The global examples of beadwork are organized by continents or regions: Africa, Americas; Asia; Oceania & Arabian Gulf; and Europe.
Next comes a substantive section of Construction and Techniques and a brief introduction Collecting Beadwork with tips for conserving, cleaning and storing beadwork.
Publisher's price for the hardcover was $50 but since the Paperback is now available for $35 I'll match that price.
