This is a full-colour guide to identifying and evaluating
alexandrite, andalusite, chrysoberyl, cat's-eye, kyanite,
sillimanite, common opal, fire opal, dinosaur gembone, tsavorite,
rhodolite, spessartine, demantoid, malaya, grossular, and other
garnets. This is the second in a series of books that explores the
history, lore, properties, qualities and geographic sources of
lesser-known gems. The book shows you with close-up photos how to
make visual judgements about clarity, transparency, colour, cut
quality and brilliance. It also provides tips on gem care and on
detecting imitations and gem treatments. The healing and
metaphysical properties of the gems are also addressed. Written for
both consumers and professionals, it's easy to read,
well-organised, packed with professional colour photographs and
full of fascinating information.
