Jablonec costume jewellery

A comprehensive publication about the world-famous phenomenon of Jablonec jewellery has been missing on the book market until now. This book has the ambition to fill that gap and to become both a suitable handbook for secondary or university students and professionals and an informative and comprehensible guide for the general public. It is full of facts and stories about ornaments made from the 18th century onwards from glass and metal in the north of Bohemia in such quantities that in many markets around the world these goods held a monopoly for many decades. Of course, there are portraits of important past and present entrepreneurs and numerous pictures.
