Gemstones are fascinating. They hold a magical attraction for people. While precious stones used to be reserved for the nobility and the church as symbols of power, today every lover of colorful and sparkling gems can afford to adorn themselves with their brilliance.
Walter Schumann, Professor Emeritus of Geology at the Technical University of Munich and internationally renowned expert in the field of stones and minerals, offers a detailed overview of the whole world of beautiful stones in his book "Edelsteine und Schmucksteine" (BLV Buchverlag). Whether you are an expert or a beginner - everyone will find the necessary knowledge and clear identification tables to make it easier to get an overview of the overwhelming range of gemstones, to distinguish the individual pieces themselves and to estimate their value. In addition, current techniques for processing and authenticity testing are presented.
The author presents all of the world's precious stones and gemstones and goes into detail about their origin, properties, deposits and processing. The book concludes with a chapter on the use of gemstones as symbolic and healing stones. The updated new edition of Edelsteine und Schmucksteine confirms the volume's long-standing reputation as an indispensable standard work for goldsmiths, jewelers, stone and mineral stores.
