Since the dawn of mankind stones have been used as adornments. In ancient times gemstones in combination with precious metals such as gold and silver have been manufactured into valuable pieces of jewelry, which ought to reinforce the aura of dignity for their wearers and at the same symbolised their exalted state in society. In some ancient cultures wearing gemstones even was reserved only to persons of a certain heritage.

Many gemstones are said to possess magical powers. Presumably as early as in the ancient civilizations of Egypt and  Babylon gems were applied as talisman and manufactured into precious amulets, supposed to protect their wearers from diseases and black magic. Thus they were of course much sought after as good-luck charms.
