I know this comment is old, but this is just so funny I couldn't help it. For anyone who wishes to research gemstones, this is not the page to do so. These particular gems are from a fictional fantasy book series, and is not about the actual gems. The gems in these books might not even reflect how supersticious people look at the particular gems either in the real world. Gems and crystals are thought by some people to have actual fantastical powers, but I bet the ones Rodda used for her gems are not going to be the ones people think those gems' real world counterparts have.
