This book is amazing not just because of the meticulous history and detail about each beautiful piece of jewelry -- but the photography and the quality of the book are incredible.

I just love it and I am having the most fun reading about each piece, and the books shows all the former owners of each item wearing them, so you get a great sense of the history and continuity these jewels possess.

I can't recommend it too highly.  If you are a diamond lover, or a lover of British history, buy this book!!

I love to read and sharing an amazing book like this with others is a joy. Rating works of art (books) is not a love of mine simply because each reader's experience with a book differs due to our life's interjected- perceptions. They say perceptions are everything. Right? So I say go in with no expectations- live with the characters- accept the journey for what it is and the book will take you where you are to "travel". Enjoy your reading!!! This is a lovely story...curl up and read away.

I love this book, it comes in different sections for each saying. Some of the pics do not fit in to what they mean but then again as a learner it could be and I just haven`t found it yet. The images are small but the book is small. Other than that, I adore this book...its beautifully rich coloration and collection of thoughts and sayings give me the boost of faith and hope I need when I am down. I have been studying Eastern Philosophy and Art now for awhile as a hobby and I can tell you, this book is worth the buy if you wish to bring  beauty in to someones life or your own. I will def look in to getting the other books.

This book is beautiful inside out. I love how easy this book makes painting feel. I love the examples, the instructions and just every single page in this book. The author has decades of experience and this particular style, abstract with a dreamy, atmospheric mood is really beautiful.
  I would say not to wait but to go ahead if you have even the slightest inkling or desire towards painting.
  I can't say enough good things about this book and I doubt you'll have any regrets if you buy it.

Hello from Red Fern Studio! This book is absolutley wonderful. I've been working through it, learning this new beautiful style so that I can incorporate bits and pieces of it into my own work. I've pulled it out for every creative person who enters my home. The quality of the work and the book itself make it a real treasure to keep at my art desk for when I need instant inspiration.

Thank you Dinara for sharing this with the world

Absolutely gorgeous! I've already read it cover to cover three times, and I have yet to see the movie! If you're afraid of spoilers, that's okay because this book has little to no spoilers in it, so it's perfectly okay to read before you see the film. The art is absolutely stunning, and the format is like a comic book. For this being my first art book, I don't regret my decision at all.

I got this book as a gift and I must say it's amazing. I collect post mortem photographs and still i am impressed, the variety of different writers/artists in it; all of which have contributed to my fascination in some way. I could spend hours just flicking through this book and still not have read/studied it completely. I don't think I'll ever get bored of this book.  Highly Recommended

I must say this is one fabulous book. I came across the pre-order a couple of months ago. By it's description and being a Chuck Jones animation fan it seemed like a fair purchase. I asked my wife to get it for my birthday thinking it would arrive mid January. Well it came out the 23rd of December, shipped one day with super saver I might add and arrived on the 24th. So a big thumbs up to Amazon on this one.

Now for the book...Wow what a find. I have never written a review for anything ever. But this book is so well done it merits praise. When I first held it I thought this thing is heavy. I mean it is a thick book. When I opened it I could see why. Professional grade art paper (giclee), every page is high quality. The art in usual Chuck Jones fashion is phenomenal. There's so much to enjoy about this book. I am not a art critic and my review is purely based on own my opinion, so if you disagree...fine. But for my 2 cent opinion...(if it's worth that) I wear white cotton gloves to turn the pages, treating it like the fine art it is. We are fortunate to live in an age where most anyone can have such a masterpiece for such a reasonable price.

What I consider a great "Art of Book" is not only displaying your best work but to give advice about the business and the process of creating such art. When an artist gives back to the community and not just produce an ego driven book makes it a great art book. My library is filled with those style books. Artist including Drew Struzan, Joe Jusko, Julie Bell and Boris Vallejo to name a few produce those style books. And now my collection includes Echo. This book is wonderful and I am not only learning a couple of her techniques but also about the business. This is a top notch book and must be for all art enthusiast.
