Before 1967, a distinction was made between semi-precious and precious stones. Diamond, ruby, sapphire, and emerald were gemstones, rose quartz for example was a semi-precious stone. Nowadays, we just talk about gemstones. There are also synthetic gemstones: these are created in a laboratory. We only use natural gemstones for our lucky tools. Some suppliers deepen the color of a stone using a certain technique. Rose quartz, for example, becomes a slightly brighter shade of pink, but it still remains real rose quartz.
