About the author: "Jean Reist Stark has been a goldsmith and teacher for 29 years, and has been a major force in the recent popularity of ancient goldsmithing techniques. She co-founded the Kulicke-Stark Academy of Jewelry Art in New York City, and taught at Parsons School of Design." (taken from the back cover of the book)"
I saw this book reviewed in Lapidary Journal and I had to have it. It is very well written and clearly illustrated. In all honesty, I have yet to try out any techniques in the book but as soon as I do I'll include my experience on my projects page.
The authors cover the following topics: single loop-in-loop chains (one in one, one direction), pinched loop chains (one in one, perpendicular, one direction), double loop-in-loop chains (one in two, one direction), multidirectional loop-in-loop chains (one in one, two or more directions, one in two, two or more directions), multiple soldered loop-in-loop chains (special techniques used with multiple soldered chains), multiple woven loop-in-loop chains, clasps and terminations. Each chapter teaches several variations on the technique presented, including at least one ancient example and instructions and one modern derivative of the technique (with instructions for replication.) Highly recommended for anyone wishing to learn chain making. ( )
