lampwork book

If you want any information this is your source. There is so much info packed into these books, that is it is going to take you months to get through it all if you can. It is spiral bound so it is great for the workbench.

must have for any lamp worker

this set is the best/ most information i have seen for learning to lampwork. packed with information it covers most techniques and even guides the beginner on how to set up a studio, great buy, worth every penny.

The best book in its class

If you could have only one book, it would be wise to consider this one. I have been in this industry many years and this is by far the best book I have seen out there.

absolutely amazing

It should get more stars than five, the history of lampworking portion of the book is almost worth the price of the book itself.The history portion is only a small portion of the set. I have been doing lampworking for about 3 years now and I search the internet for anything reguarding lampworking often and this book set has tons of stuff I have never seen. excellent.
