any stone which is beautiful and rare can be considered precious. Although a stone does not have to be rare to be a precious stone, such as a diamond is by no means rare but is about the most valuable of the precious stones. Others are Rubies, Sapphires and Emeralds. Most other gemstones are semi-precious.
