Information and comparisons are shared to assist jewelers in making better choices when selecting potentially dangerous materials that are needed for their particular craft. Ms. Dhein encourages both awareness of materials used, and the use of common sense for a healthier, safer jewelry-making studio.The book is in three main parts:
