Reviews

This beautifully illustrated volume espouses an innovative approch to Renaissance jewellery... The scholarly contributions of this volume are presented in a highly accessible form, enlivened by tales of jewels rescued from shipwrecks or discovered along the Thames foreshore, and sleuth work into elusive objects, such as the Gresham grasshopper rings. The high-quality, detailed images and documentary appendices ensure that Bejewlled will be a spur to further research in this field. * Jewellery History Today * Not only is this book pertinent to historians of early modern visual and material culture, its accessibility renders it desirable to non-scholarly readers with general interests in Renaissance jewellery, dress and representation. * The Court Historian *
