Gemmological Instruments, in association with Gem-A, invites you to join us at Gem-A London for a special book signing event with guest speaker Maggie Campbell Pedersen, as she discusses her book, Tortoiseshell. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet the author, ask questions and have your copy signed at this exclusive event.
Book Description
Tortoiseshell, derived from marine turtles, has been used in decorative work for thousands of years. This book covers the historical use of tortoiseshell in various parts of the world; how tortoiseshell artefacts were made. Today it is important to be able to recognise tortoiseshell as all marine turtles are protected species and subject to global trade bans. This is the only book that covers tortoiseshell from all aspects.
