 jacinth
      n : a red transparent variety of zircon used as a gemstone [syn:
           hyacinth]

 Jacinth
    properly a flower of a reddish blue or deep purple (hyacinth),
    and hence a precious stone of that colour (Rev. 21:20). It has
    been supposed to designate the same stone as the ligure (Heb.
    leshem) mentioned in Ex. 28:19 as the first stone of the third
    row in the high priest's breast-plate. In Rev. 9:17 the word is
    simply descriptive of colour.
