Dear Friends,
Opps posted on the wrong forum. Tis the season (almost) so what do I give to my gem lovin friends? Let me see:
For Josh: Anything that isn''t about Richard Homer
For AnA: Is there anything she hasn''t read?
My Suggestions:
"The History Of Mt. Mica" by Augustus Hamlin. A reprint by Rubellite Press of a classic book written in the Nineteenth Century. Beautifully bound and richly illustrated: http://homepage.mac.com/rasprague/rubellite/pub3.html
"Secrets Of The Gem Trade, The Connoisseurs Guide To Precious Gemstones" by Richard W. Wise. Highly Recommended by , Rapaport, Canadian Jeweler, Metalsmith, Gem Market News, Orchid and Gems & Gemology: http://www.gia.edu/gemsandgemology/620/21350/this_weeks_news_details.cfm Comes signed: Brunswick House Press: www.secretsofthegemtrade.com
Next,
Sagebrush
