The focus of this book is on the side of the brooch that usually
isn't noticed: the reverse. When we encounter an attractive piece
of jewelry, our instinct is to admire the front, but when we turn
it around, it often reveals a secret. The author lets us in on that
secret, typically only shared between the maker and the wearer.
Clever brooch makers often adorn the back with items meant to
complement the front, or the backside may have a unique, intricate
design all its own. When you flip a brooch over in your hand you
may find a surprise message, a hidden pattern, or even an unlikely
foreign implement. The result is a better understanding of the
artist's abilities and personality. Now, you can judge for yourself
what the 128 artists respresented in this volume had in mind, and,
if you are a jewelry maker, you may be inspired to leave your own
unique mark.
