The Rainbow of Gemstones
Gemstones are the most intensely colored natural material available on earth. Gems have become so synonomous with color, they have even lent their names to their colors. Everyone knows ruby red, emerald green, sapphire blue, aquamarine, turquoise, and jade green, but the world of gemstones today has an even more extensive selection of colors which span the entire rainbow.
In red, you have the choice not only of ruby, but also tourmaline, spinel, or garnet. In green, there is not only emerald and jade, but also tourmaline, tsavorite garnet, and peridot. The wide range of gemstones available today means that no matter what your favorite color is, a gemstone is available to match it in your price range.
