Rainbow of gems

Since ancient times, people showed interest in gemming stones: they collected, processed and made cult and jewelry from them. The Aesculapius studied their healing and magical properties, philosophers and poets sang in verses and poems. Amulets, talismans and legends about stones were passed down from generation to generation. Today, interest in stone is reviving. In gems, a bright palette of colors and a variety of patterns created by nature delights.
The beautiful and mysterious world of gems inspired the author to create a collection of poems, which mention the names of fifty minerals. In verses, the reader will get acquainted with the legends of stones, learn about their origin, physical properties, and esoteric significance
