My wife enjoys collecting jewelry, especially Juliana jewelry, so I purchased this for her to use as a source of reference. She also enjoys thumbing through it, looking at the pictures, and reading the descriptions.

The Art of Julian Jewelry by Katerina Musetti
The Art of Juliana Jewelry, written by Katerina Musetti, was published by Schiffer Books. It's a must have! If you don't already know, DeLizza and Elster jewelry is among the most sought after costume jewelry around. Their use of unfoiled stones, art glass and other specialty rhinestones in fantastic, multi-layered designs has always made their jewelry a standout. This beautiful jewelry is also extraordinarily well made, so it has held up well over the years. Since DeLizza and Elster jewelry was never signed, it's always been difficult for the average collector to identify. Fortunately, Musetti's book contains a very detailed section on how to correctly identify Juliana jewelry.

Fortunately, Musetti's book contains a very detailed section on how to correctly identify Juliana jewelry. She also uses lots of photos to support her descriptions so that you can clearly understand exactly what she means. The book contains over 450 photographs of DeLizza and Elster Juliana jewelry. Some of these pieces are the most sought after by collectors. My only, and very mild criticism of the book is that some of the photos are a bit repetitious. On the other hand, I was also very pleased to see that Musetti included pieces that were attributed to and signed by other makers, such as Weiss, that were also made by DeLizza and Elster. This, along with the photos, make this very helpful and useful information. There is also a price guide included in the book. While having a rough idea of prices may be useful, book prices should only be used as a general guideline. There are many factors that influence price, such as condition or the current market. It's the incredible photographs of the pieces that enable identification that make this book most useful. This is an absolute must have book for both the fledgling as well as experienced collector of costume jewelry. It is an excellent reference book that is well worth the investment.

This is a fantastic reference book for anyone interested in Juliana jewelry, which is my passion. It has some of the most beautiful pictures of pieces that are out of this world. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and looking at the fantastic pictures. I will use it as a reference for years to come. I bought it because I heard it was great and needed the reference, since I have lots of pieces of this style and hope to get many more in the future.This is a fantastic reference book for anyone interested in Juliana jewelry, which is my passion.

The Art of Juliana Jewelry by Katerina Musetti (2008)
I highly recommend this book for anybody who wants to learn about DeLizza & Elster (aka Juliana) jewelry. It is worth the expense, not only for the excellent photographs--and there are a lot of them--but also for the information about HOW to identify Juliana. There are numerous pictures of the BACKS of pieces--showing the types of pinbacks & earring clips that D & E used, along with photos of necklace & bracelet backs & clasps--and there are tons of close-ups. Unfortunately, there are many sellers on ebay who are knowingly (and unscrupulously) selling new reproductions & calling them "confirmed Juliana", & there are also a lot of experienced sellers who will call anything "Juliana", (even though they know better)in order to make a sale. Juliana jewelry continues to be collectible, but ... I highly recommend this book for anybody who wants to learn about DeLizza & Elster (aka Juliana) jewelry.

Juliana jewelry continues to be collectible, but all these questionable listings are driving the prices down. It makes me sad, since I love ebay & I love Juliana. It has become a case of "buyer beware" when it comes to Juliana jewelry, so it's a good idea to contact the seller FIRST---BEFORE you bid---to ask them when, where & how a piece was confirmed. If they can't provide that information, don't bid! There are several websites which on Juliana Jewelry which have hundreds of photos of confirmed Juliana pieces, along with information on the settings & clasps. Some of them are members-only, but others are open to the public. Most of these groups work with Frank DeLizza, ( one example is the "Discovering D & E, aka Juliana" group)& he verifies (or not) every piece attributed to D & E. If this book has a flaw (and this is minor), I would say that too many pictures are devoted to the D & E figurals. Many of the photos show the same piece--(turtle, butterfly)---just in different colors. But overall this is an incredible book & a must-have for any serious collector of DeLizza & Elster jewelry.

The Art of Juliana Jewelry--Katerina Musetti--a Novice must Have!
This book is amazing--very informational, and they turn the pieces over so you can see the reverse side! I am sure we all agree that is necessary in judging any pieces of vintage rhinestone jewelry. It cannot cover all pieces of Jewelry in the D&E or Juliana line, but it gives us so much information. I have read it twice, and along with several other books I have, helps to learn about the designers in depth--often ruling out pieces that I was certain were D&E or Juliana! And, helping me to be a lot more certain about pieces I was on the fence--yes, they did use those features sometimes!
