Mary Emmerling Art of Turquoise
By Mary Emmerling
Publisher: Gibbs-Smith
First Edition, hardcover, 2011, 112 pages, beautifully illustrated, excellent condition
The author writes on the use of turquoise, as a mineral, and turquoise as a color in items one finds in home decorating—furniture, fabric, and paint; as art collectibles—such as ceramics, candlesticks, and crystal; as jewelry—particularly Pueblo and Navajo creations; in clothes and accessories; in architecture—as turquoise color painted doors and windows; and in many miscellaneous tchotchkes.
The book is illustrated with beautiful color photographs by Jim Arndt, photographer.
