Anne van Cutsem; A World of Head Ornaments: Milano 200525.01.1211
A passionate interest and a lifetime spent seeking out the world's finest ethnic jewelry has contributed to making the Ghysels collection one of the premier collections of its kind in the world. Jean-Pierre and Colette Ghysels have indulged their passion indiscriminately, according as much attention to ethnographic objects as to extraordinary pieces of ethnic jewelry. The book consists of superb shots of pieces from Asia, Africa, Oceana, and (South)America. The pieces consist of a variety of head ornaments: combs, bands, nose ornaments, etc. 256 pages

René van der Star, Ethnic Jewellery from Africa, Asia and Pacific Islands, Amsterdam 200225.01.1207
This is primarily a photo book, published to accompany an exhibit in Rotterdam of pieces from the collection of René van der Star. It's organized by geographic area, with short essays introducing each: Africa (Maghreb); Oman & Yemen; Central Asia (Turkmen); Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal & Tibet (mostly India); Southeast China & the Golden Triangle; Sarawak & Indonesia; and Pacific Islands (this last section notably smaller than the others). There's a good range of pieces and materials represented, and each section has at least a few photos of the ethnic peoples themselves wearing similar pieces of jewelry so that one gets the sense of what they look like in their original contexts. It's great for getting a sense of regional stylistic patterns, to help identify unknown pieces in one's own collection. (cit. Frederic on Amazon) 256 pages
Hannelore Gabriel; Jewellery of Nepal, London 199925.01.1206
In many parts of Asia, folk jewelry, the most beautiful and dazzling expression of material culture, has disappeared in the wake of modernization. In Nepal, however, where the formidable Himalayas have formed a barrier to outsiders and their influences for centuries, native jewelry traditions have remained alive and strong until very recently. 224 pages
