“Precious” means valuable. In the 18th century, a French jeweler began describing gems as either precious or semiprecious stones. While you’ll find these categories still used in merchandising, professional gemologists frown upon these terms. This distinction has no real meaning. For example, garnet gems traditionally fall into the semiprecious category. Nevertheless, tsavorite garnets, for example, have sold for as much as $10,000 per carat. That seems pretty “precious” to me!
