Book excerpt: Make professional-looking metal jewelry and accessories without investing in silversmithing tools, equipment and training, with this essential guide. Metal clay is a magical material: real metal in clay form that can be modelled and then fired to turn it into pure metal. It has taken the crafting world by storm in the past twenty years and its versatility and accessibility means it is used by professional jewelry makers and hobbyists alike. Metal clay is available in many different types—silver, copper, bronze and even steel. It can be sculpted, modelled, molded, rolled into sheets, cut into shapes, woven, braided and carved to produce an endless array of forms and effects. Equipment needed is minimal and you will probably have most of the simple tools in your home already. This book concentrates on silver clay which is the easiest kind to use because it can be fired without a kiln. After drying the clay, it is fired using either a small blowtorch, a gas hob, or camping gas and in five minutes or less the clay becomes pure 999 silver that can be hallmarked. This book will show you how to master all the basic techniques of working with metal clay while later chapters cover more advanced techniques. Twenty gorgeous projects are shown in detail with clear step-by-step photographs. There are pendants, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, charms, brooches, beads, cufflinks and rings and many of the projects give alternative ideas for developing your skills. Embellishment techniques are shown in detail from setting stones and gilding to enameling with resin, adding inlay, engraving, and oxidizing for luscious colors.

Book excerpt: Selected by Shelf Unbound as 2014 Notable Book. Almost 70 years ago in Japan, Tei Fujiwara wrote a memoir "Nagareru Hoshiwa Ikiteiru" about her harrowing journey home with her three young children. But the story of her story is what every reader needs to know. Tei's memoir begins in August 1945 in Manchuria. At that time, Tei and her family fled from the invading Soviets who declared war on Japan a few days after the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. After reaching her home in Japan, Tei wrote what she thought would be a last testament to her young children, who wouldn't remember their journey and who might be comforted by their mother's words as they faced an unknown future in post-war Japan. But several miracles took place after she wrote the memoir. Tei survived and her memoir, originally published in Showa Era 24 [1949] became a best seller in a country still in ruins. Over the following decades, millions of Japanese became familiar with her story through forty-six print runs, the movie version, and a television drama. Empress Michiko urged her people to read Tei's story. For the first time, Westerner readers will now have the opportunity to read this intimate record of a Japanese war refugee.
