Greek and Roman Jewellery (1961) covers jewellery from the Classical lands from the early Bronze Age to the late Roman period, almost 3,000 years of continuous development and innovation in the craft. A full account of the technical methods of making jewellery is followed by a description, period by period, of the jewellery itself.
