In Japan, this same book is called Noble Beads. This is a great book, just like the previous Bead Fantasies (I-III), the book is clearly illustrated with bead & thread paths. Beautiful photography of the finished projects. Very little $$ for the wonderful projects you will want to do over & over again. Appropriate for the intermediate beader - or for a begining beader who does not mind following threadpaths.

The fourth book in this series is my favorite so far. The jewelry keeps getting better and better. The color palettes too are absolutely Divine. I eagerly await the next book in the series.
