Rhinestones! A collectors Handbook & Price Guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
A very good book for the rhinestone jewelery collector, although quiet concentrated on the "big" names, especially de Lillo. Very interesting historical background pertaining to origin of the trade and numerous, excellent quality photographs.
