    That book by Anastasia Young is, in my opinion, the best book in my collection. It covers just about everything with lovely clear images. It even tells you about photography and marketing your jewellery.

    Ditto. I also love that it's from the UK, with UK supplier lists for a change.

    Hey Sarah,

    I would go for the complete metalsmith by Tim McCreight. Its very easy to read and understand, and even with experience you will still refer back to it. I also like some of Alan Revere's books although they are a little pricey.

    Good Luck
    Lucy

    Not here it isn't. Brepohl's good too - but I don't think either are beginners' texts.
