Description
In addition to beautiful photographs, the book contains everything you need to know about gemstones, including a wealth of knowledge about their history, origins, and how to care for them. This is an illustrated book that introduces gemstones and their equivalent natural stones* and minerals. This illustrated book introduces 200 types of gemstones, from representative gemstones such as diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds to relatively inexpensive natural stones and minerals used in power stones, etc., with beautiful visuals and easy-to-understand explanations. The best feature of the book is its beautiful and abundant photographs. (As an aside, there is actually a correct orientation for gemstones, which is often ignored in general books. This book has that down to a tee, so the visuals are professional and convincing.) And to make it more practical, the explanations of each gemstone include useful information such as [what kind of stones are valuable] and [what to look out for when wearing them] when actually acquiring them or using them as jewelry and so on. At the end of the book are beautiful, top-quality gemstones that are coveted by mineral fans. [Unique features of this book] Not just an illustrated data book, but more practical in content. [What to look for in a stone] It explains what kind of stones are popular and valuable even within the same stone. You can find out the points to look for in the stones you want. (*Not all are listed.) [Stone Processing] Includes information on techniques used to increase the value of the stone, such as dyeing, removing flaws, heat treatment, etc. This is information that sellers do not want to know too much about, so it is rarely mentioned in books. However, from the buyer's point of view, it is important information to know in order to judge the value of the stone. This information is also included in the description pages of each stone. (*Not all of this information is included in the book.) [Care Instructions] This section explains the tools necessary for storing jewelry, as well as what kind of care should be taken and what should not be taken. In addition to handling jewelry, it also explains how to display and enjoy gemstones and other items. This is a book that tells you everything you need to know. |
