My grandma loves it,
By A Customer
This review is from: Gemstones (Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
I bought this book for my grandma about 5 or 6 years ago. Its a VERY SMALL book. fits in your pocket, but definatly worth reading. basic info on every gem on the planet.but if you want detailed, page after page long info on a certain rare gem- this is not the book. this is just a gorgeous simple overview.

This review is from: Gemstones (DK Pockets) (Paperback)
It's great to have lots of information about stones in a pocket guide. This one is in some coated paper, making it durable. Different stones get different pages and the information layout is well written. Things one might need to know when looking or buying stones is in this book. The PRICE value for stones is not, but it does tell how other minerals and inclusions are supposed to look. Definately worth buying.
