These stones are usually affixed to jewelry such as rings, necklaces, pendants, or bracelets to allow them to wear it at all times; as long as they have it on their body or in their hands, they will not be burned by the daylight.
Vampires who possess daylight amulets are generally referred to as "Day-Walkers. In Original Sin , it is revealed that the 2,year-old witch Qetsiyah is in possession of a spell capable of enchanting a whole location to protect a vampire from sunlight. This is shown where she spells her cabin for Stefan. Vampires are able to withstand sunlight if they are safely inside a building with windows and doors outfitted with double-paned and tempered glass that prevents UV rays from penetrating.
As hybrids retain the powers of their former werewolf selves upon gaining their vampire powers, they retain the ability to walk in the sunlight without the need of a daylight amulet, unlike their vampire peers. As hybrids , they retain properties of their former Siphoner selves upon gaining their vampire powers, they retain the ability to walk in the sunlight without the need of a daylight amulet, unlike their vampire peers as witches are by default able to walk in sunlight.
Despite having vampiric tendencies i. There are several reasons why this may be the case, both of which go back to the spell that created them.
The powerful witch Qetsiyah created the Immortality Spell in the 1st century BCE, which was then used by the witch Silas and his human soulmate, Amara, to become the first true immortals, who drank the blood of humans but were still alive, which may explain why they could walk in sunlight unlike their undead vampire cousins.
Another explanation for immortals being able to walk in daylight is that the Original vampires from whom all vampires are descended were created by Esther Mikaelson in the early 11th century using an adapted version of Qetsiyah's Immortality Spell, which involved her calling upon the Sun for life and the ancient white oak tree for immortality—because the wood of the white oak is the only known way to kill an Original aside from immensely powerful magic , it would make sense that the Sun would also become a weakness for the vampire species, since it is what gave them their second life in the first place.

Vampires that are still in transition can resist the effects of direct exposure, albeit will be severely inconvenienced by it. Unlike normal vampires, Originals are impervious to the sun. Although the sun can severely weaken an Original, they are unable to be killed by it.
The reason why vampires are naturally weak against the sun started at the time of the Originals , when the witch Esther used the sun's life aspect and the White Oak tree 's immortality to make her family live forever and be able to protect themselves. Sunlight is harmful but not fatal to Originals, however, Esther created the very first daylight rings. Some vampires have spelled daylight jewelry with Lapis Lazuli ; these rings must be forged by witches because the lapis itself is simply a stone.
It protects them from the sunlight. So long as the vampire wears it in the sun, he or she can't die from exposure. Both Stefan and Damon Salvatore are in possession of rings containing lapis lazuli which protect them from the harmful effects of the sun.
However, without such a ring sunlight will burn a vampire on contact. Elena Gilbert set on fire. During Damon's imprisonment, Stefan deprives him of his ring so when he later tries attacking Caroline and runs into a shaft of sunlight, he's left with nasty facial burns following exposure of approximately 3 seconds. Slater's cafe and home contained tempered glass windows to block UV rays, making them safe environments for vampires. This shows the harmful element is natural UV light, but it is unclear if artificial UV light would have the same effect.
Furthermore, it's unclear if the lapis lazuli rings protect against only natural sunlight or UV rays in general. In Ancient Greek Myth, the sun was under the rule of two gods, the first being was Helios who was kind and fair and was the First Lord of the Sun. Under his rule, the sun was seen as a symbol of riches and gold, its sunlight gave life to the living and the crop and Helios drove the sun the sky in his chariot with his fiery horses which he named: Pyrois, Aeos, Aethon , and Phlegon.
The second was Apollo who was the God of Sunlight and under his rule, the sun was seen as a symbol of fire and destruction, under his rein, the sun burnt down hoses and killed the crop.
