Rare Book: Jewelry Linguistics - A Linguistic Approach to Jewelry Culture by Toshiyuki Momozawa

I kept this book at home as a hobby and treasured it. There is a very slight stain on the corner of the page edges (see image 4), but it is generally clean with no signs of use or yellowing.

Please consider this item with the understanding that it is a used item. Immediate purchase is welcome!

This is a book of tremendous erudition by Toshiyuki Momozawa, known as one of the most knowledgeable people in the jewelry world. Even though there are no photos or illustrations, what makes this book many times more interesting is the author's vast knowledge and brilliant writing skills.
This book, which discusses the origin, history, hearsay, and latest information of each item in a wide range of fields, awakens the joy of "knowledge" in jewelers of all types of businesses and leads them to countless hints of wisdom and enlightenment.
It's exceptionally interesting no matter where you start reading, and once you start, you can't stop—it's a thrilling and unprecedented book.
