The gemstone color (hue saturation)
All natural gemstones are unique in their color. To better understand the terms and identify different color parameters, it is important to focus on three things when it comes to gems.

The hue is only one primary primary color of the gem, which is one of the main colors of the color palette (rainbow). The determination of the hue is just as easy to determine that the gem is blue, red, green or yellow.
The tone Determines how intense the color of the gemstone is. It can vary from light to dark, ideally the most valuable tone would be neutral, i.e. It is not too bright and not too dark, but in the middle. However, different tones may look more attractive than others, depending on the design and style of the jewelry, and sometimes it is a matter of taste and personal preference.
