What Is The Real Value Of A Precious Stone

If we want to continue the theme of precious and semiprecious stones we have to precise what we mean when we use this words. They say there is not a clearity in this therms. Traditionally precious are called diamant, sapphire, emerald, ruby and perls. But there are stones that cost more than diamands of the same weight, for example. We said just that diamonds can have diferent defects like color etc and a semiprecous tourmaline or opal or other stone could have higher price as this dimond.

An other interesting thing is that not all stones are in fact stones or minerals. The first name that comes in the head is amber.

It's amusing that different stones we know are only different colors of the same mineral. So ruby is corundum of red color, all other colors of corundum are called sapphire. Green beryl's name is emerald, if it is blue is called aquamarine,if red -biksbit and so on with other colors. Light blue aquamarine cost much less than green emerald that's price could be higher than diamond but... They say that only very precise modern chemical analysis can find differences between these two stones. Isn't it amusing?

Can you explain, why we want to wear stones and to take them in our houses?

We like to make more beautiful places where we pass more time, where we live. A very beautiful rose is perfect but it dies in some days. Ther real beauty has to be eternal, they say. And the beauty of a stone is eternal and unique, so as only stone is unique. Maybe is this the right explanation why are the stones that are used as talismans and amulets?

We like to be unique and different from others. The models you find in this site you can not find in other places -for example. And even if you will find something similar as model, it's unpossible to repeate the stones. Because every stone is unique.

At the end: believe or not believe, stones have psychological influence on persons that wears or observes them. I will not tell you here about carnelian, for example, that was used to heal wounds during the war neither about other scientifically proved properties of the stones. I wrote about it in my previous posts.
It's enough that you take stones in your hand and observe them for 10-15 minutes to feel the difference. Try it and write me aboutyour experiences with stones.

Tip of the week

If you think that you have problems with your weight (and many of us do), try to move your stomach backwards and forwards. Slowly. Than do circular movements with the hand massaging your belly. Breathe slow and deep. It will calm you if you are tired or stressed an will turn you back from the fridge...
