The first book on the Arts and Crafts movement behind the "Boston Look"

At the turn of the 20th century in Boston, a vibrant and active community of jewelry makers--along with artists, craftspeople, scholars, critics and patrons--found unity in the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement, which held that art and beauty could instill morality and inspire joy.

Frank Gardner Hale, who trained in England with founders of the movement, became the most prominent and prolific creator of works of wearable art, helping to define the "Boston look" characterized by bold use of colored stones and brilliant enamels; refined and delicate settings; and exquisite design and craftsmanship, conceived and executed by a single craftsperson. A leading figure in the community of jewelers and an advocate for the Society of Arts and Crafts, Hale influenced many other important makers, among them Josephine Hartwell Shaw, Edward Everett Oakes, Margaret Rogers and Elizabeth Copeland.

This book, the first in-depth study of the subject, reproduces dozens of ornaments in dazzling color, accompanied by design drawings from the extensive Frank Gardner Hale archive at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. These drawings provide insight into the works' transformation from two to three dimensions and represent rare renderings of many pieces of jewelry that are now lost. The authoritative text brings together scholars of jewelry history and American design to explore how Hale and his contemporaries expressed Arts and Crafts principles in the creation of jewels of enduring allure.

Updated review: spitting and splintering
UPDATE: Originally, one of the boards arrived with a split in it, but I was still happy with them. After a few weeks of light use, hand washing and drying of the boards, I figured it was time to update this review and knock these down to 1 star. The boards do not hold up very well. Cut marks are deep, and they are starting to splinter. Another of the boards has also developed a split. Save your money and go with cutting boards from someone else. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I bought these cutting boards to cut down on microplastic exposure. This would be a 5 star review except that one of the boards arrived cracked (noticed while hand washing all of them before use). Despite the one cracked board, I did not return them, as I immediately started using the boards, was too busy to deal with it at the time, and the overall value was still there. These boards are great, the value is excellent since you get several of different sizes. I like that all sizes have the moat for juices, because sometimes you are cutting one or two chicken breasts or one steak and don’t want to have to grab a big board. I honestly am writing this review because I wouldn’t be surprised if the company sends me a replacement. If they do, I will update the review to reflect their customer service.

Very Well Made

Here is a review of the product: 1. Design and Construction: The set includes four extra-large cutting boards made from high-quality bamboo, which is known for its durability and natural resistance to water and bacteria. The boards are pre-oiled, which helps to enhance their lifespan and maintains their appearance. The thickness and sturdy construction make them suitable for heavy-duty use in both residential and commercial kitchens. 2. Size and Versatility: The extra-large size of these cutting boards provides ample space for cutting large quantities of meat, vegetables, fruits, and other ingredients. Additionally, the set includes different-sized boards, allowing you to choose the one that suits your specific needs. The boards can also double as serving platters due to their attractive design.

Worth the money
Size: Large-3SET
This 3-piece pre-oiled bamboo cutting board isfantastic. The carbonized bamboo gives them a rich, warm tone that looks much nicer than standard cutting boards. I really appreciate the variety of sizes. They feel sturdy without being too heavy, and they stay in place well while cutting. Cleanup is easy too—just a quick wash and they’re good to go, with no lingering odors or stains. Overall, this set offers excellent quality, functionality, and value. Great for everyday cooking and a solid upgrade from plastic boards.
