Discover the magical and practical properties of gemstones with this classic work by America's first professional gemologist, George Frederick Kunz.

Drawing on his wide-ranging research into the occult and magical properties of gemstones, George Frederick Kunz produced a treasure trove of a book that covers ideas about precious and semi-precious stones from around the world. With tables of correspondences and sections on scrying and astrological uses of stones, omens regarding certain stones, and how gemstones were seen historically around the globe, this is a fascinating work of impressive scope.

Learn about the history of gemstones and how they have been used: • Within fortune-telling and for their magical properties • For their astrological associations • In rituals, as symbols and talismans
