Stories In Precious Stones is a collection of short stories written by Helen Zimmern and published in 1873. Each story is inspired by a different precious stone, such as diamonds, emeralds, and rubies, and explores the symbolic and mystical properties associated with these stones. The stories range in tone from romantic to fantastical, and often feature themes of love, betrayal, and redemption. Zimmern's writing style is descriptive and poetic, evoking the beauty and power of each stone. The book is a fascinating insight into the Victorian fascination with gemstones and their perceived magical properties.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
