Notes:

"Alyssa Dee Krauss writes about her work as follows: "After making boxes for several of my pieces using the books from which I culled my texts, it occurred to me to carve a piece out of a book itself. I chose Romeo and Juliet for its longingly romantic content, as this lends itself to the sentimental aspect of jewelry. This hardcover Folio Society edition [1950] of "The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet" is rare and a collectors item ... Published: London, England : Folio Society. Nationality of creator: American.
