It is a great addition to the line of books on Art Clay Silver." I personally do not understand the use of the word arrangement in all this, but maybe it was a translation thing. Anyway - the book is in English, and well-illustrated to boot. 50 pages. Look inside: One, Two, Three

Another failure of the translator? No idea what the title means, but has far and away the coolest samples, with a decided "goth" feeling. Enough English to get by with. Softcover. My personal fave.

Book - Art Clay Silver Book - Handmade Silver Accessories (1)
In Japanese, except for cryptic headings on the pages that are stranger than anything I would have come up with. Comical Gangster? Ghosts of Love? It's like a bone? Some very, very cool stuff illustrated here, some quite goth (like the claw bracelet) and I can only wonder at the item that appears to be a joint and match rendered in pure silver. However, lots of very inspiring projects, lots of rings and other things you might not have thought of to make, (a wallet chain?). Full colour of each project. Instructions separate in back are in black and white. Glossy, 8 x 10 in. 88 pages. Softcover.
Price: $ 26.00
