Creating Jewellery in Wood
«
This book is very contemporary. While I wouldn't make any of the projects I would adapt them to my taste. I hadn't previously considering make wooden jewellery although I have dabbled in woodworking and carving and have access to quite a few of the tools. Looking forward to trying out some of the techniques.

I love the format of this book, having never even dreamt of working in wood before as a jewellery designer myself, the step by step photo’s in this book & the clearly of written instructions lead me to believe i actually could “have a go”.
The designs have a very strong, simplistic edge to them, the Beech Spoon necklace is a triumph! Such a clever use of an easy to find product & one i could wear.
But don’t be fooled into thinking there is no colour within the book. Sarah guides you through surface techniques including the use of colour.
This book would also interest a wood turner as this would be a different path to venture down.
There is also a lot of information on basic tools & how to apply them together with a detailed list of suppliers.
