Differences in the Prices of the Semiprecious Stones

Semiprecious stones are able to create in us very special feelings. Did you notice that you really love this or that necklace, bracelet or ring not for the look YOU have wearing it but you lov the stone themselve? It's fascinating, don't you think?

Because I got in love with them, I wanted to know where they come from and how is possible that the nature can create such beauties.

I just wrote some posts about the places where the geologists find the stones (thanks to my blogger-friend geologist Michael Leikum and his book "Mysterious Stone of Zar Alexander II") and museums of the stones. Here I publish photos taken by the friend of my husband Jose Luis in Cordoba, Museo Roscen.

You can see why some stones are more precious and others -less. Because there are many women that want to wear semipreciousa stones, all the parts of the minerals are used to satisfy our desire. They used only the central, precious, part before (left and right stones you see on the photo). Now, they do not throw all the non precious parts but sell them to us. That is why there are these differences of the prices. And than there are false stones too.
