Chrysoprase throughout history

The name chrysoprase is believed to be derived from the Greek words chrysos meaning gold, and prasinon meaning green. In antiquity chrysoprase represented the divine love of truth and was assigned to the Goddess Venus. It was used by the Greeks, Roman and Egyptians to make jewellery, seals, signets and other ornamental items because of its beautiful green colour. Legend has it that Alexander the Great would wear a piece of chrysoprase on his belt to help him win battles during his quest for world domination!
