Inhalt:
Researched and written by Francesca Balzan, this study has made extensive use of primary sources to build up a history of jewellery in Malta, which focuses on the art of jewellery, its social history and trade practices. It is the first study of its kind to be published in Malta. The book is in two parts, the first of which contains essays on historical aspects of the jewellery while the second part is devoted to analytical case studies of a number of jewellery items.
