Editorial Review Product Description Gemstones of the World is the single, cornerstone volume that every hobbyist, jeweler, jewelry maker, and rockhound needs. And this updated edition contains a new chapter on the treatment of gemstones, expanded information on what’s “New on the Market,” and 400 additional stones. More than 1,500 full-color photos showcase each precious and semiprecious stone in its rough, natural, polished, and cut renditions. Each entry offers complete information on the gemstone’s formation, structure, physical properties, and characteristics, along with the best methods of working, cutting, and polishing it. There are even full treatments of lesser-known gems; a special section on rocks as precious stones; and organic gem materials. Charts and tables (including the “double fraction” figures that experts want) help collectors identify unknown gemstones and check for genuineness. Customer Reviews (5)

Color Encylopedia of Gemstones Vendor Review
although the rest are very fine, this is still the best This book is emphaticallynot for the investor or speculator who is looking for advice, and noattempts at valuation are made. On the other hand, for readers interestedin specific gemmological research or (esoteric) appreciation, this bookwill be ideal. The level of scholarship is impeccable, and the book is notoverwhelmingly technical or difficult. It is not cheap but is worth everypenny. Most strongly recommended.
A superb reference book of colored gemstones! |

Finding What Was Meant For You She has sectionsabout auras and laying on of hands, of crystals and gemstones and theirpowers. My sister was in a head-on collision the first of June.It's amiracle she's alive.I took her a necklace of amethyst, which is a healingstone, and it is really making a difference.Diane also has a section onchakras and colors.I am not yet familiar with chakras, but I know fromexperience the power of color therapy.My bedroom is done in shades ofblue and I have a sound-effects machine that simulates the ocean.Oh, yes,it works! I highly recommend this book, even though so far I have justskimmed off the overflow.Another plus - she expresses herself in plainEnglish.There is not a lot of technical jargon to plow through and say,"Say What?

Healing With Gemstones
A shorter guide
5+ stars!!! This book is broken down into three major parts:Part 1 deals with Exploring the World of Gemstones, Part 2 goes in depth with each of the particular properties of specific stones, and Part 3 deals specifically with application and healing.There is also an extensive list of illustrations that are quite good! For an even more complete library, I recommend getting this book in addition to Chase and Pawlik's other masterpiece, "Healing with Crystals". This book is money well spent.Highly recommended!

good book to read for beginners
Glorified Reiki I Manual First off, theauthor tells you that certain stones act certain ways depending upon howthey are shaped and if they have been altered from the natural state, i.e.faceted, carbocon-cut, tumbled, etc. Sometimes the shape *does* have aneffect if the cut enhances the stone such as rfaceting bringin more lightinto a stone, or if it is in a sacred shape such as a pyramid, but fromexperience it has little to no effect. She says NOTHING about the gemquality of a stone affecting its vibration and seems to think the size ofthe stone matters, which I have found not to be the case. I'd say 1/3of the book is the standard Reiki I hand position manual, indeed, anabridged Reiki I manual, and added because she wanted to make the booklonger. No where, except for in a customer review was there even a hintthat this book was for beginning Reiki practitioners. Personally, I thinkenough books have covered Reiki I positions well enough already and to addit to this one was too much. There was a bit of new information (forme, at least) on the layouts and descriptions of 7 of the same gemstone,one on each major Kundalini Chakra: 7 Garnets, 7 Carnelians, 7 Citrines, 7Rutilated Quartz, 7 Pieces of Amber, 7 Chrysoprase pieces, 7 Rose Quartz, 7Chalcedonies, 7 Aquamarines, 7 Lapis, 7 Amethysts, and 7 Clear Quartz.Those sections had a paragraph of what the stones were to do in each energycenter. And it did give the optimal positions for the stones' energies toaffect each Chakra. All in all I was very disappointed with this book,which I had set very high hopes on. However, if you are a Reiki I and/or abeginner at Laying on of Stones, this book might be of some help to you. Ifyou're Reiki II or III, do yourself a favor and look at books which arepurely for Laying on of Stones.
A very good book for beginners! |
