The sparkle and rich symbolism of gemstones have attracted human beings for as long as there has been life on earth. They have been treasured for their beauty alone but also for mystic values, properties, and symbolical meanings. In this guide, we're going to talk about all the meanings, properties, and birthstones connected with different gemstones, and demonstrate how Mivraa uses these treasures in our beautiful jewelry collections.
Ancient Civilizations: Mystical and Medicinal Uses
Gemstones have long been prized for their supposed magical and healing powers. The ancient Egyptians used to wear amulets made of gemstones, which brought protection to the owner and ensured his good fortune. In ancient Greece and Rome, other than as an adornment, gemstone jewelry was worn to enhance health. For example, amethyst could prevent intoxication, while emeralds improved vision.
Gemstone Meanings and Properties: An Insight

With Mivraa, explore a magnificent range of diamond jewelry—from timeless solitaire rings to contemporary designs—so that you're sure to get one to adorn your moments.
Ruby—The Gem of Passion and Vitality
Throughout history, the simple word 'ruby' has conjured images associated with passion, vivacity, and courage. Ancient rubies were said to protect warriors in battle and bring good fortune to those who wear them. Mivraa offers an elegant range of ruby jewelry that encapsulates the spirits of fire in this beautiful gem.
Sapphire: Wisdom, Royalty, and Divine Favor
Sapphires, especially the very blue ones, have always been associated with wisdom, royalty, and divine favor. Ancient Persians believed that the earth once balanced upon a gigantic sapphire whose reflection gave the sky its blue color. Mivraa's sapphire jewelry can create elegance and sophistication for those looking to add royal charm.

Emeralds are green, hence signifying rebirth, fertility, and renewal. The ancients—beginning from the Egyptians to the Incas—prized these gemstones in a big way.
