Among the so-called “precious stones”, only four prevail: diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires.
Sometimes you can see that a pearl, an opal or a jade are listed as a precious gemstone, but more often they are considered semi-precious.
Traditionally, these four precious stones have been the most expensive
and sought after stones.
A semi-precious stone is also known as a gem or gemstone (also a jewel, a precious stone), which is a portion of mineral, which, in refined and cut form, is used to create jewelry or other embellishments. There are also organic resources or precise rocks that are not minerals (for example jet or amber) that are also used for jewelry and would also be considered to be gemstones, as well.
In the West, precious stones are diamonds, sapphires, rubies and emeralds. All other stones are considered semi-precious stones. However, this is a commercial based classification and was a distinction that marketers created years ago which gives the false impression that precious stones are more valuable than semi-precious stones
