Several stones are mentioned with reference to the King of Tyre.
In verse 13...
You were in Eden, the garden of God;
every precious stone adorned you:
ruby, topaz and emerald,
chrysolite, onyx and jasper,
sapphire, turquoise and beryl.
Your settings and mountings were made of gold;
on the day you were created they were prepared.
There are nine stones mentioned in this verse plus the brilliance of gold. At one time everything beautiful adorned man in a perfect setting. God shows how brightly his creation shines before the temptation of Adam and Eve and the move out of the garden.
