This is a handy guide to the equipment, materials and techniques that can be used when making jewellery. It is aimed at the beginner but it would also be suitable as a quick reference boo for the more experienced jeweller. Carles Cordina shows in step-by-step sequences how to accomplish various techniques including enamelling, fusing, soldering and printing. It also carefully explains the pros and cons of different materials and finishes, and how to achieve them. This handbook is copiously illustrated with the work of fine artists to both show what is possible and to inspire the jewellery making.

Carles Cordina is a well-know Spanish Jeweller. He is a professor in the Department of Jewellery Massana School in Barcelona. He has exhibited his work throughout Europe and he is in frequent demand as a lecturer and demonstrator. His work appears in both private and public collections.
