The Alchemy Collection: The Works of Basil Valentine contains three of the most influential treatises from the great alchemist Basil Valentine: The Triumphant Chariot of Antimony, The Twelve Keys, and Of Natural &amp; Supernatural Things. The Triumphant Chariot of Antimony is perhaps Basil Valentine's most well known &amp; influential work. Valentine dedicates this treatise entirely to antimony. The alchemists'regard it as one of the go-to authoritative sources for the antimony path. Contains four illustrations from the original manuscript. The Twelve Keys is a great work by Basil Valentine centered around twelve plates or "keys." These keys contain various alchemical secrets hidden in code, and other riddles. This section includes original illustrations from the Twelve Key's print in Maier's 1618 Tripus Aurus manuscript. The third section includes Basil Valentine's "Of Natural &amp; Supernatural Things." Republished, Restored, Revised, and Compiled by Adam Goldsmith &amp; VITRIOL Publishing in 2013.

Basil Valentine's Twelve Keys of alchemy is among the most notorious alchemical works ever crafted. Originally written at the very end of the 16th century, it was almost immediately rendered into English and widely regarded.Containing a series of parables and metaphors regarding the process of creating the Philosopher's Stone, the Twelve Keys claim that alchemy is both real and potent, able to perfect matter and create a medicinal elixir beyond comprehension. Valentine swears that the process is not as others have described, with often vague references to "special" salt and sulfur, but is far easier and much less expensive than claimed in prior works.

In alchemical symbolism Antimony is characterized as a lion (able to devour all metals except the royal Gold). The element itself has had a chequered past, being on occasion considered almost a panacea, and at other times condemned by both church and state. Basilius Valentinus is a shadowy 16th century figure, thought by some to have been Canon of the Benedictine Priory of Saint Peter in Erfurt, Germany. Some of his writings, such as 'The Twelve Philosophical Keys' are as obscure as the author's own origins, but this present work, 'The Triumphant Chariot of Antimony' is a far clearer exposition of Antimony's alchemical properties, intermixed with vibrant Gnosticism and not a little medical perceptiveness. The Annotations of Theodore Kirkringus, (who claims to have known the mysterious author), are equally illuminating. Regarded by many as the first monograph on a chemical element, 'The Triumphal Chariot of Antimony' is an important primary text for all those interested in the 'Royal Art' of Alchemy and the occult wellsprings of modern science.
