The modern birthstone list was popularized by the jewellery industry as a gift-giving guide in the early 20th century, but gemstones have long been used as symbols that remind us of important events. While many associate the Zodiac with fortune-telling today, its symbols are part of an ancient narrative that helped our ancestors interpret the great celestial clock for everyday survival. From the Sumerian lunar calendar to the breastplate of Aaron, this puzzle is a tribute to the powerful mnemonics that charge us to remember our history and reach for the stars.

Featuring mineral photography and design by Michael Bainbridge, reproduced in vivid wide-gamut colour, and mounted on genuine Eska board.
