I have long been an admirer of silversmithing and am getting into the art form. I have been wanting to do a preliminary course at a community college, but the flexibility of having my own workspace and materials led me to books like this and online videos. I follow many accounts on social media and found online tutorials to be the most helpful, but I was pleasantly surprised by this book!

The optimism and leadership of Nicole Ringold throughout these projects is motivating as a reader. The images and instructions were easy to follow, beautiful, and prepared me for the tasks at hand.

I loved the theme of nature as muse throughout these projects. I can’t wait to work through these chapters and share my work in the future.

I received this book from Net Galley/publisher in exchange for an honest review of my opinion.

That little basic jewelry course i took prepared me a bit for this book.

It's a book written by an experienced jeweler, that features many project done in her specific technique and style. It is geared towards intermediate and seasoned jewelers but it's a great read for beginners, too. It has step by step guides and images that are really helpful and gave even me the courage to try them one day.

What I liked the most about this book is, along with the great level of information provided, the philosophy of its author. It's a book that teaches you how to start very small and get creative so to be mindful of your material, while keeping the environment in mind, i liked it a lot.

I received a copy of this in order to share my view on it.

Very detailed book about silver smithing, the author provides very detailed information and pictures for each technique. I also really liked the overall designs of the items shown, they looked very unique!

This is a great book for anyone interested in silverwork. It was filled with so many pictures to help you build your skill..

A detailed and well thought out how to guide to silversmithing. With images and detailed guides for each technique, it’s also personalised by the author with practices that work best for them. An essential read for those starting out.
