Even if you are not the slightest bit interested in Bakelite plastic jewelry, you will enjoy this book. It introduces Ron and Ester Shultz, who are a husband and wife who are artists and craftspeople who make modern jewelry from recycled Bakelite plastic. Their story alone is inspiring, but wait until you see the jewelry- it's whimiscal, colorful, and fun to look at. Along with careful examinations of the Shultz's various techniques, this book is filled with beautiful full color photos of their jewelry. The author, Karima Parry, has already written two books on Bakelite jewelry which are collector 'must haves': "Bakelite Bangles Price and Identification Guide", and "Bakelite Pins". In those books, she not only shows plenty of Bakelite jewelry, but she also demonstrates a great deal of knowledge about her subject, and a mission to teach the reader/collector what she knows. "Shultz Bakelite Jewelry" is given the same scholarly treatment that Parry has taken with vintage Bakelite jewelry in her other books. She guides the reader through the techniques and decorative patterns that are used by the Shultzs, and introduces a workable terminology to describe them. Unlike many of the other books on Bakelite jewelry, Parry discusses the pieces in detail and helps the reader to understand why some pieces are considered more collectible, or better examples of a technique than others. Every piece is shown in full color, and includes it's measurements and a realistic price range. This book paves the way for collectors to collect Shultz Bakelite jewelry with knowledge and confidence. For anyone from a beginner to a serious advanced collector, if the subject is Bakelite jewelry, the best guide around is Karima Parry.
