BODY ADORNMENT
The full title of this marvelous new book is: "A Brief History of the Evolution of Body Adornment in Western Culture: Ancient Origins and Today". But don't let the long title fool you. Even though this book, by my friend and compatriot body modifier Blake Perlingieri, is long on research and arcane historical information it is a treasure trove of rare and unusual photographs. Included are photos of some of the earliest modifiers in Western Culture: Ethel Granger and the Great Omi.
Also a long section on, blush, Fakir with a brief history of the beginnings of contemporary body piercing in Western Culture. About half of book is filled with photos and histories of world peoples, piercings and jewelry from Mesoamerica to Europe to Oceania to China to Nepal.
Blake's Body Adornment is a collector's oversize coffee table book printed in color on heavy paper... 146 pages with hundreds of photos. Contains scores of color photos of ancient and traditional jewelry now housed in the Nomad Museum in Bend, Oregon. Again, a "must have" for any serious body modifier, tattoo or piercing studio.
