Gemstones of the World (The Natural World Playing Card Collection)

Rating:
Summary: Novelty Item
Review: The gemstones are hand drawn- not photos like in the AGM Agmuller tarot distributed by the same company. There are faceted and rough/natural specimens pictured. Unfortunately, I have seen better hand-drawn illustrations in 30 year old rockhound guides. A few of them are beautifully rendered, but some are so far off that you wonder if he was sorry he had to keep doing the rest of them. It also appears that the printing process' color was not as accurate as it could have been. The stones are chosen with no readily apparent link to any cartomancy or numerology symbolism/meanings.
