Amethyst:

According to Greek mythology, Dionysus, the god of wine, desired a maiden named Amethystos. She wished to remain chaste and prayed to the gods for help. The goddess Artemis heard her prayers, transforming her into a transparent crystal. When Dionysus learned of this, humiliated, he poured wine over the rock, staining it purple. The Greeks and Romans drank from amethyst cups to avoid drunkenness.

Peridot:

The modern term “peridot” derives from the Arabic word faridat, meaning “gem.” In the Middle Ages, it was widely used by the Church. It was the preferred gemstone of the Baroque era. Peridot was already being used in Egypt as a gem and healing stone two thousand years before Christ. This mineral is also known as chrysolite.

Iolite:

You may occasionally hear this gem called a "water sapphire," but this terminology is prohibited and should not be used to describe iolite.

Carnelian Agate:

The word carnelian is derived from the Latin word caro, carnis, meaning flesh stone. Carnelian is a variety of chalcedony. It is said to have the power to ward off evil and bring good fortune. Ancient warriors wore carnelian around their necks to gain courage and physical strength to conquer their enemies.

Properties: It is a talisman for success in any lucrative venture.

White Topaz:

Topaz is an aluminum silicate. It is often used as a substitute for diamonds because of its use as a gemstone and its variety of colors. The central "diamond" of the Portuguese crown is a topaz, although of course no one is going to say so; it's an open secret.
