Etymology
The term 'gemmed' is derived from the noun 'gem', which has its roots in the Latin word 'gemma', meaning 'bud' or 'jewel'. This term has evolved over centuries, with 'gem' originally referring to a precious stone or a piece of jewelry made from such stones. As the usage evolved, it started to convey not just the stone itself but also a state of being adorned with these valuable items. In Middle English, it was used in various forms, and by the 14th century, it became more commonly associated with adornment and decoration. Today, 'gemmed' indicates an object that features gems as significant decorative elements, celebrated for their beauty and rarity.
