The book was new. Lovely photos and well researched content. A true delight and a well written book. Sits just well in my studio. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by I***L on 15 January 2025* Very interesting and entertaining, the book is well made and a pleasure to the eye as well, with very high quality photographs. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***3 on 13 August 2022* A gem collection from the Smithsonian for me to learn from and actually get to stare at aside from the monitors screens? YES, please! I’m getting more into gems and jewelry as a crafter, so I obviously needed to learn my history of how and why beautiful pieces came to be so I went to the good old Amazon. I waited for the prices to go down and when I saw a 5 dollar coupon last week, I jump on the deal. Now I have a beautiful book to show off to my jewelry making friends that we can all geek about and admired from. Pros: - The book is a lot bigger than I thought. - The quality of the images are beautiful BUT it provides context and history behind every piece! - Explains the history of the gems and the jewelry pieces in a helpful and simple way. - Each type of gem (like opals, quartz, etc.) is explained from how it was discover to how it’s made by nature. - Again, I get to learn while look at pretty pretty pictures. Cons: - I wish the book was bigger or that their was a different volumes of it. I’m sure there are a lot more gems and pieces that Smithsonian has to show of. If you still have doubts about adding this gorgeous book to your collection or to learn from, look at the flip through. There is no other way than seeing it. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Smithsonian National Gem Collection―Unearthed: Surprising Stories Behind the Jewels - Gemstones of the World: Newly Revised Fifth Edition - Diamonds: Their History, Sources, Qualities and Benefits --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/334687184-smithsonian-national-gem-collection-unearthed-surprising-stories-behind-the-jewels](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/334687184-smithsonian-national-gem-collection-unearthed-surprising-stories-behind-the-jewels) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
