Mexican Silver: Modern Handwrought Jewelry & Metalwork (Schiffer Book for Collectors) Reviews

Review by DAVID WORKMAN:

ABSOLUTELY A MUST FOR THE MEXICAN SILVER COLLECTOR WITH AMPLE PICTURES TO GO WITH THE TEXT. THE BOOK IS WELL WRITTEN WITH PASSAGES ABOUT THE TRUE MASTERS OF THE TAXCO AREA ALONG WITH THEIR COHORTS. IT SHOWS THE HALLMARKS OR TOUCH MARKS ON THE WORK OF THE MASTERS,THIS PROVES TO BE A GODSEND IN IDENTIFING AND UNDERSTANDING THE VALUES OF THIS VERY COLLECTABLE SILVER.IN ALL MY YEARS OF COLLECTIONG MEXICAN SILVER I HAD SUSPECTED THAT SOME DAY, SOMEONE WOULD PUT OUT A KNOWLEDGABLE HANDBOOK FOR THE TRADE AND SPOTLIGHT THE SPRATLINGS, DAVIS AND OTHER ARTISTS. A BIG THANKS GOES TO PENNY MORRILL, AND HERE STAFF.i.e CAROL BERK

Review by :

The is virtually pure eye candy for any one who appreciates this type of fine craftmanship. I like the over 400 color photographs. This is the best way for someone to get the true feeling of this type of art. I missed some kind of explanation of rarity for some of these creations. This was one of the main reasons I was looking for this kind of reference. Nonetheless this is an exquisite reference book with 272pp and a feast for the eyes. It's worth the price.

Mexican Silver Jewelry Details

The widespread appeal of Mexican silver jewelry can be attributed to the artistic quality and variety, plus the large production volume of these small treasures. It is both wearable art and the perfect collectible. This book includes examples from three categories of Mexican silver jewelry: 1) top designer pieces -- hallmarked and representing the best technical virtuosity and artistic achievement; 2) popular silver jewelry -- often of considerable artistic merit, often hallmarked, yet by unknown or lesser-known makers; 3) tourist trinkets -- anonymously made and produced in relatively large quantity. All three categories are shown, while the most popular silver jewelry is the main focus of this book. Most examples are shown close up, so the details are clearly shown. Identifying information and value ranges accompany the 1150 color photos. The bibliography, index, illustrated glossary, and illustrated section on hallmarks make this the most complete reference for the widespread field.

The Little Book of Mexican Silver Trade and Hallmarks Reviews

Review by Sandra L.:

A great reference book for collectors of Mexican silver jewelry. There are lots of pictures of marks as well as a long list of initials of Mexican designers including artists signatures with two initials and three initials. The Mexican eagle stamp is noted in all of its various forms through the decades. There is also a reference of the designers in the various Eagle numbered shops.

Review by JEWELHOUND:

Over 200 pages of Mexican silver marks. The pictures are clear of the actual mark on the silver. Has a brief history under the makers name when available. Would buy this book again.
