Lapidary Journal introduces readers to jewels, gems
Perhaps one of the most unusual periodicals available in the research section of the online library at Armijo is The Lapidary Journal, a magazine that offers a wealth of resources to gem cutters, jewelry makers, and rockhounds.
It is of immense value to help students and professionals develop crafts in these areas. From providing information on new techniques, tools, and supplies to offering reviews of related books, exhibitions, and events, the Lapidary Journal is an invaluable resource to help gem lovers further their passion.
It is easy for a beginner to feel overwhelmed by the amount of knowledge and skill required to successfully cut and polish gems, design and create jewelry, and collect rocks and minerals. The Lapidary Journal can be an important guide to learning the basics, including identifying the tools to understand the processes to change rough stones into beautiful works of art. Artists can follow the instructions to develop skills and gain experience in working with gemstones.
The Lapidary Journal also provides the latest news and trends in jewelry making. It can introduce the designer to book reviews and make artists aware of local exhibitions and events.
