The Jewelry Engravers Manual (Dover Crafts: Jewelry Making & Metal Work) Review: Absurdly low price for such an amazing book - Amazing book, has a wealth of knowledge for the price of a hamburger. This book, while not appearing to be much, has a LOT of useful information not only on engraving but on tempering and shaping your gravers and the assortment of gravers themselves. After reading through it, my opinion of it was that it was a book written by someone who wanted to share the craft rather than make a pretty penny on his knowledge. If you do any metalworking that remotely involves engraving, pick this thing up. Even if all you do is sharpen drill bits, the section on tempering alone is WELL worth it. Past that, it also explains the technique on how to make the lettering, with careful handrawn diagrams and several alphabet tables for reference. It's become invaluable to me, and it's become as essential to my precision toolbox as the tools inside them. Review: An Excellent Primer - This book is aimed at the student seeking advice on how to approach hand engraving. As such, it is both technical and practical. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #154,028 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #82 in Jewelry Craft (Books) #9,527 in Arts & Photography (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (323) | | Dimensions | 5.44 x 0.45 x 8.47 inches | | Edition | 3049th | | ISBN-10 | 048628154X | | ISBN-13 | 978-0486281544 | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Language | English | | Part of series | Dover Crafts: Jewelry Making & Metal Work | | Print length | 160 pages | | Publication date | June 22, 1994 | | Publisher | Dover Publications | ## Images ![The Jewelry Engravers Manual (Dover Crafts: Jewelry Making & Metal Work) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Y9imgAMOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absurdly low price for such an amazing book *by M***D on December 20, 2015* Amazing book, has a wealth of knowledge for the price of a hamburger. This book, while not appearing to be much, has a LOT of useful information not only on engraving but on tempering and shaping your gravers and the assortment of gravers themselves. After reading through it, my opinion of it was that it was a book written by someone who wanted to share the craft rather than make a pretty penny on his knowledge.

As such, it is both technical and practical. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Helpful for the begnner *by W***D on March 26, 2019* This brief book offers a friendly entrance to the art of engraving, of decorating metal with delicate and precise carving. It starts with the sharpening - not just creating a cutting edge, but shaping and polishing it into a precision tool. Later sections add tips for handling liners (I've been doing it wrong, not knowing any better) as well as more familiar cutting tools. It also present the basics of shaping, hardening, and tempering your own tools from steel rod, knowledge I already used in making my own chasing tools. A very large part of the book goes over different lettering styles and usages. To tell the truth, lettering doesn't much interest me as decoration. It's a great vehicle for demonstrating different ways of creating strokes, shapes, and textures, though, and suited my interests in that regard. Lacking access to real instruction in engraving, this encourages me to pick up some tools and give it a shot. -- wiredweird PS: When I was reading this on the subway, the lady sitting next to me looked over my shoulder. An older woman, she saw what I was reading and commented that her father had made his living as an engraver. She seemed pleased that interest in her father's art is not wholly gone. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Jewelry Engravers Manual (Dover Crafts: Jewelry Making & Metal Work) - 6 Gravers Jewelers Clock Gunsmith Engraving Hand Tool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3971877-the-jewelry-engravers-manual-dover-crafts-jewelry-making-and-metal](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3971877-the-jewelry-engravers-manual-dover-crafts-jewelry-making-and-metal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
