EMERALD GEMSTONE


EMERALD GEMSTONE
The Emerald Gemstones is considered to be one of the most precious of all gemstones. It's a derivative of the mineral beryl (a silicate of aluminium and beryllium), and the metal chromium leads to the typical bluish-green colour that is so famous that the hue 'emerald green' is now a colour shade on its own merit. As most gemologists only know too well, the perfect Emerald Stone is a very rare occurrence. An Emerald Gems is usually graded visually – its colour should be a typical hue of dark green that has yellow and blue as secondary colours, and it should be pleasant (and not warm) to the touch. It's common for emeralds to be cracked, so a good eye and a sensitive touch can detect if it's flawless or not. Emeralds Gemstone may be treated with oil to enhance their transparency and excellence.
