Weekly Review: The Penland Book of Jewelry

The Penland Book of Jewelry is a fantastic collection of techniques from master metalsmiths across the country. I bought this when it first came out, and immediately fell in love. Personally, the section done by Jan Baum on hollow forming helped me to perfect my own hollow forming techniques, using a hydraulic press, and I now have the knowledge to tackle a variety of problems (such as my Thorn Brooches).
