Did
you know the following about emerald jewelry?
The
emerald is one of the most beloved jewels. Emerald have been known since
ancient Egypt. Nowadays, the beautiful green gemstone can be found in Colombia,
Brazil, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Madagascar, South Africa, Australia,
Russia, and North Carolina.
The
beautiful gemstone is ranked 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale of hardness (diamond
is the strongest at 10), but the emerald is somewhat brittle because of
the natural inclusions.
Emerald
jewelry are immersed in oil and dipped in resin to minimize the appearance
of the natural fissures. Inclusions are typical of this jewel and, unlike
diamonds; do not devalue the emeralds as much. Emeralds that have deep
fissures, but has a deep green color can cost more than an inclusion-free
pale one.
Perfect
emerald rings are expensive and extremely rare. Color is the most important
aspect when buying emeralds. Emeralds that are not too dark or too light
with a deep, vivid green are the most expensive. However, every shade of
emeralds is popular.
Emerald
is May's birthstone and it's recommended for the 20th and 35th wedding
anniversaries.
