EDITOR'S REVIEW
The strokeable black velvet cover of Jewel: A Celebration of Earth's Treasures opens to reveal a comprehensive and beautifully photographed guide to gemstones, interspersed with spreads devoted to some of the most famous jewels in the world. There are unexpected nuggets of information on virtually every page, and with topics as diverse as the Halley’s Comet opal, the Staffordshire Hoard and the gold-plated and heavily bejewelled Shwedagon Pagoda in Myanmar, it is a must for jewellery lovers who have an interest in gemstones and the precious jewels they are destined to become, and all for the very affordable sum of £12.
