Theory and Practice of Goldsmithing

Erhard Brepohl , Tim McCreight , Charles Lewton-Brain

This book was for many years the standard reference used by European jewelers. It has now been translated from the German into English. A comprehensive collection of information about the materials, tools and techniques of goldsmithing. What sets it apart from other books is its emphasis on the science and calculations behind the usual methods. (Not a book of projects, though the ends of some chapters have a few examples of high level students work) A good book for those who want to know the "why" of metallurgy and not just the "how". This book is said by some to be the best book of its kind.
