Precious Jewellery from Plastics by Chris Bond

Although many jewellers work with plastics, very little information is available on how to manipulate them. This book includes instructions on cutting, joining, laser, waterjet, heating and colouring. Jewellery with Precious Plastics requires no previous knowledge and covers everything you need to know about working with plastics.
Chris Bond was originally educated as a scientist rather than a jeweller. However, while studying, Chris started to be influenced by craft, beginning with blacksmithing and developing into nearly 30 years of work with a range of materials, from leather and gold to textiles and plastics. In 2000 Chris began working as a technical jeweller (rather than a designer jeweller), developing techniques and processes. He discovered a fascination with plastics, in particular solving problems such as bonding and working with materials including polypropylene, nylon, polystyrene and many more besides.
