Facts About Precious Stones

Facts About Precious Stones contains a useful guide to precious stones, originally written to offer the reader a concise handbook containing facts related to precious stones and the rules for their selection. Written in simple language and including invaluable expert tips, this volume will appeal to those looking for an introduction to the subject of precious stones and what should be looked out for when buying or inspecting them. Contents include: "The Diamond", "The Ruby", "The Sapphire", "The Turquoise", "The Opal", "The Spinel", "The Garnet", "The Tourmaline", "The Topaz", "The Amethyst", "The Beryl", "The Moonstone", "The Pearl", "Concerning Mountings", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on gemmology.
