Composition: Emeralds belong to the beryl family of minerals, along with other gems like aquamarine and morganite. Their vibrant green color comes from trace amounts of chromium, vanadium, or iron within the crystal structure.
-
Color: The most prized emeralds display a vivid and saturated green color with a hint of blue, often referred to as "emerald green." The presence of chromium and vanadium determines the hue, saturation, and tone of the stone.
-
Clarity: Unlike some other gemstones, emeralds often contain inclusions or internal fractures, known as "jardin," which are considered part of their character. These inclusions can affect the stone's clarity but are sometimes tolerated as they can enhance the stone's uniqueness and prove its authenticity.
-
Origin: The most renowned emerald deposits historically have been found in Colombia, particularly in the Muzo, Chivor, and Coscuez mines. Other significant sources include Zambia, Brazil, and Zimbabwe. Each locality produces emeralds with distinct characteristics in color and clarity.
