Product Description:
Despite the very clear advantages to be gained by buying antique and second-hand jewelry and silver, many continue to buy new, casually and perhaps even carelessly unaware that their purchases will slump in value immediately after purchase. Alternatively, prices are consistently cheaper when buying secondhand and even offer the strong possibility of investment potential provided purchases are carefully selected. A comprehensive silver and jewellery index, consisting of over 4,500 cross-references to the main body of the text, enables the reader to study particular categories. A comprehensive Glossary of Terms is also included. By provided all of these elements a sound basis has been established enabling the reader to grasp the essentials of silver and jewelry strictly in market terms.
