PRECIOUS STONES: WHICH ONES ARE THE LEAST KNOWN?

Precious stones: do we really know them all?

Precious stones are natural minerals highly valued for their beauty, rarity, hardness, and unique characteristics that make them particularly fascinating. Each precious stone has a story and meaning linked to both culture and geology.

The best-known stones include diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphires, but there are many other varieties such as opal, fancy diamond, tanzanite, and  morganite. The classification of precious stones is based on factors such as hardness (measured on the Mohs scale), transparency, color, and cut, which determine their quality and value.

Many peoples have attributed symbolic meanings to precious stones, using them as talismans or symbols of power and status.  

Each stone has its charm, properties, and history, making it an object of great interest for collectors, gemology enthusiasts, and anyone wanting to add a touch of elegance to their style.
