Gemstones - their stories and magic...
Gemstones have been a source of fascination for centuries. Partially, this is because of the many remarkable
effects produced by their interaction with light. The individual properties of gemstones
contribute to the rarity, durability and beauty of the stone; making it both desirable and valuable.
In ancient times, gemstones were the sole property of kings and noblemen. Gemstones have been used to adorn
weapons of war, scepters and crowns. There is extensive gemstone meaning and folklore
- these beautiful little rocks and minerals have been used for everything from healing to good luck amulets.
