Have you ever wondered why some gemstones are affordable while others are very expensive? The price of stones depends on the gemstones – Precious and Semi-Precious. Both these terms are used in the jewellery sector, and these stones are of great significance, too. Both these terms are based on traditional traditions and the perceived value of the stones and are not derived from any scientific or specific criteria. Jewellery has long been considered a symbol of beauty, status and personal expression, purchased to be worn and gifted. Choosing the right gemstone can be very effective when it comes to choosing the right jewellery, so it is important to know about Precious and Semi-Precious Stones.
Emma Chapman uses both types of stones in her designer gemstone jewellery, which are renowned for their unique properties.
Difference Between Precious And Semi-Precious Stones –
Gemstones are natural treasures that are found on the earth, and it is true that not all gemstones are the same. There are two categories of gemstones known as Precious and Semi-Precious, and there is a major difference between them.
Precious Gemstones
Precious Gemstones are more valuable than semi-precious stones and are mostly used in jewellery. These gemstones are highly sought after for their beauty, rarity and durability and are often used in making fine designer jewellery. There are only four stones that are traditionally considered precious: sapphires, diamonds, rubies and emeralds. Precious Gemstones Jewellery has a history of being worn by royalty. They are rare and have a lot of uniqueness, yet they are durable.
Emeralds: Emeralds are a variety of beryl that is famous for their rich green colour and are precious gemstones. Its beautiful green colour is named after the presence of chromium and vanadium, and it transforms negativity into positive emotional energy. It is also good for women who are going through labour. Most emeralds come from the Cleopatra mines in Egypt.
Diamond: Diamonds are created under conditions of extreme pressure and temperature that are extremely beautiful and durable. Diamonds are typically colourless but extremely lustrous. This gemstone is associated with April and Taurus; We use Rose Cut, Chakri and Rough Cut Diamonds.
Sapphire: Sapphires are commonly known for their blue colour and are a variety of corundum. These stones are very popular for their durability and lustre and are found in a variety of colours. Good quality sapphires are found in Burma, Sri Lanka and India and bestow fulfilment, happiness, prosperity and inner peace in life.
Ruby: Ruby is a variety of corundum that is prized for its deep red colour. It is highly sought after in jewellery and is used extensively due to its vibrant colour and hardness. Ruby is the birthstone for Leo and helps increase vitality, energy, and wisdom.
