This is a PDF file on CD, featuring a 15-page article about an area of silver collecting that is not covered in most of the current books on antique silver and was probably inspired by Queen Victoria’s journey to India in 1875.
The majority of the article covers metal working techniques and hollowware forms unique to India and features 14 illustrations. There is some information about region design differences that applies not only to metal arts, but wood and textiles, too. There are a few paragraphs on jewelry with one engraving of a 19th century necklace.
