Emerald

Item Description

Emerald is one of those gems that everybody is aware of. It usually falls into a conversation with Rubies, Sapphires, Diamonds, etc. Most people don't realize that fine gem quality Emeralds are not terribly common around the world. There are only a handful of world localities that really produce anything of value, and the Emeralds from Colombia have been the standard-bearer for centuries. This stone is a gorgeous "Oval" cut gem with saturated green color. Now there are some visible inclusions, but Emerald is classified as a Type-3 gemstone, which means that inclusions (even small ones) are typically present, and accepted by jewelers, collectors and dealers. Sometimes dealers will actually use the term "jardin" (French for garden) to describe the inclusions inside of an Emerald. If you're looking for a fine quality Colombia Emerald for a fraction of retail, this is perfect for you. A great gem for anybody who likes Emeralds. Please note that Emeralds are notoriously difficult to photograph, and this gem looks better in person than in the photo/video.
