BERYL

Green Emerald

This exquisite gemstone with its distinctive bright green color belongs to the Beryl family. The intense green color is formed by the presence of Chromium. An emerald is rarely pure due to the presence of inclusions, which also earns it the name “The garden of Emerald.” The clearer the gemstone, the more valuable it is.

The use of emerald in jewelry has a long history. The Aztecs and Inca civilizations believed in the spiritual power of emerald. Emerald symbolizes eternal youth and beauty, making it the favorite gemstone of Cleopatra. The crown jewels of Iran are said to have the largest collection of emeralds in the world. Iconic actresses such as Elizabeth Taylor and Marlene Dietrich also adorned themselves with stunning emerald jewelry.

Celebrities with an emerald engagement ring include Jackie O, Halle Berry, Victoria Beckham, and Dakota Johnson.
