The Gem Kingdom delves into ancient man's interest in gems and how it has affected his affairs through all history. Great collections of crown jewels, collections of antique jewelry, and certain of the more renowned gems and their mountings are constant reminders of the continuity of these ancient and respected crafts. Jade is the last gem discussed and is an example of a durable gemstone which has been man's companion for perhaps more than seven thousand years.
