Emerald

Emeralds are striking green gemstones belonging to the Beryl mineral family along with Aquamarine and Morganite. They are prized for their vivid green colour, which comes from traces of chromium and vanadium. Emeralds have been cherished for centuries and are often associated with beauty, luxury, and royalty.

Emeralds are brittle with a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs’ scale so care should be taken when wearing them. They are often included, with fractures and fissures, but this is part of their character and is known as "le jardin". However, the degree to which this is apparent can affect a stone’s value. Clean, bright Emeralds are the most desirable.

Emeralds are often lightly oiled or resined to enhance their clarity and beauty. This is an accepted practice as it has been done for hundreds of years. However, more permanent coloured resins or high pressure oiling may be used which are not so ethical and are generally considered not to be acceptable.

Emeralds are the birthstone for May, the gemstone for Pisces and the 55th anniversary stone.
