So based on Amethyst's chronological age, which is a little over 6,000 years old, it's safe to say that the Crystal Gems (excluding Amethyst before she joined them) are over 6,000 years old. Further revelations are explored, including the discovery of the Homeworld Gems' lack of understanding the value of human life and the other creatures that exist, and how/why the Crystal Gems (minus Amethyst before she joined them) came to chose Earth over their home, and we may see more Gems from the homeworld that wanted to parricide the blue and green planet that is our home.
