Rings have outsold every other subject covered by our original 500 series?books, so it's only fitting that we begin the next generation of this art-jewelry?series with Showcase 500 Rings.
?
This dynamic gallery?book looks at?rings as?they are?being?designed by leading studio jewelers?around the world:?some exploring dazzlingly innovative design styles with highly advanced techniques and costly materials, others using simple, traditional methods and creating works of quiet elegance.

What they?have in common is that every one of the 500?pieces photographed contains elements of surprise and awe. This book is a must-have, an essential and inspiring release?for all jewelers, crafters, art fans, collectors, and contemporary designers of all stripes.
