For more information about JET and other Victorian black jewelry we recommend the excellent book 'Jet' by Helen Muller.

Order a brand new black and white re-print of the original publication of  "JET" by Helen Muller with front cover in color. The first book about jet jewelry and ornaments  ever published, it covers the history, geology and materials used to simulate jet (vulcanite, bog oak, pressed horn, etc.) as well as jet itself. There are 149 pages with wonderful black and white illustrations.
WHAT IS REAL WHITBY JET?
Buyer can request any signing of the book by the author.

The book is £12.50 plus postage £5.00 to USA from UK.

"Jet" by Helen Muller

Copies of the book can be obtained by contacting Helen Muller's daughter, Katy:  Email Katy

VICTORIAN jet worker's tools as shown in Helen Muller's book "Jet". I was surprised to see how primitive some of the actual tools were, homemade and well used. The artistry in the hand best carved jet jewelry is amazing.

VICTORIAN jet pen and pencil set with matching hand carved designs and Whitby Abbey, 5" long. Sets are rare and this set is particularly lovely. The third piece is a red pencil with the name "Whitby" on the handle.   View   View   View   View   View   #V33165

TO ORDER

PLEASE NOTE: Regretfully, it is no longer possible to respond to individual questions regarding jewelry history, identification or value, or to offer written or verbal appraisals or opinions. The demand for this kind of information is absolutely too overwhelming for one dealer to fill. 
I love jewelry, but appraising and selling are two entirely different businesses, and I choose selling as my business.
Instead, articles are added on a regular basis to JEWEL CHAT on line Magazine, a wonderful reference for  information on many makers and styles of vintage jewelry.
