Gem of the Month for May - Emeralds

Emeralds are fascinating gemstones! They have the most beautiful, most intense and most radiant green that can possibly be imagined … Emerald Green!!!

The rarity of the Emerald gemstone allows inclusions to be tolerated in top of the line stones. Top quality specimens of fine Emeralds are even more valuable than the Diamond.

Emeralds have been held in high esteem since ancient times. For that reason, some of the most famous Emeralds are still exhibited in museums and collections around the world. The green of the Emerald is the color of life, springtime, beauty and of constant love. In ancient Rome, green was the color of Venus the goddess of beauty and love. Today the color green represents unity of faith in many religions around the world. Mined in many areas of the world, from Zimbabwe to Columbia, the Emerald is a one of the most challenging stones for gem cutters to work with because of its value and many inclusions. Perhaps no other gemstone conjures up more images and associations with intrigue, beauty and richness.
