Table of Contents: Page 1 - Page 2
This new book has been designed for both the new and the experienced collector. There are sections on each of Spratling's three design periods. For each design period there are dozens of photos depicting the unique design elements, figural themes, materials used, and construction features that are typical for that specific period of time. Spratling's hallmarks - including authenticated variations are depicted in both the text and easy to follow charts. Learn to distinguish between authentic vs. copy. An additonal section discusses care of Spratling silver. Three indices enable one to find any item by design features (hands, serpents, applied discs, etc.), materials (tortoise shell, amethyst, obsidian, azur-malachite, etc.) or by kind of item (necklace, bracelet, bowl, ashtray, etc.). The book has been organized to enable users to locate complete information quickly and easily. There are more than 500 photos in this full color, easy to carry soft cover book. The information contained in the book is far more extensive than what appears on this website and is in a format specifically designed for this book. The two resources are designed to complement each other rather than to serve as a substitute.
