The bottom line on this book: Miriam Haskell Jewelry by Cathy Gordon and Sheila Pamfiloff is THE resource if you are
interested in Miriam Haskell jewelry. Gordon
and Pamfiloff discuss the history of the Haskell company and include valuable
information on identification and dating of Haskell jewelry pieces, such as how
the jewelry was constructed, how it was (or was not) signed, the types of
clasps that were used, and so on. The book then dedicates several chapters to
examining the work of key Haskell designers, organized in chronological order so
you can see the progression of the company’s designs over time.
This book is an incredible resource for
learning about Miriam Haskell designs, and is also a wonderful resource for jewelry
design in general. We turn to it all the
time to learn more about the vintage Haskell metal components, beads, and vintage
glass pearls we offer at Bumbershoot Supplies. Highly recommended!
