Pliny the Elder also wrote that there is little as beautiful in the world as the green of an emerald, and that nothing matches the intensity of a purely saturated emerald stone. Also, he also correctly identified at as a stone of the beryl family.

The dagger of Mercury was studded with tawny jasper in Virgil's Aeneid. The dagger was commissioned by Dido and is seen when he reminds Aeneas of his mission.

I really wish these sorts of videos left the modern electric tools out of the picture. Has all of nothing to do with how the ancients made them.
