Most emeralds are one of three shades, Emerald Green, Green and Yellowish Green. F. A dark green is usually the desired color and only the finest stones are transparent. Most real emeralds are clouded with inclusions because perfection in emeralds, as in all things, is among the most rare of nature's treasures. Synthetic emeralds are usually very transparent and have no real inclusions even when viewed with magnification. Some people say that they like the look of a created stone over a real one because of how clear it is.
Any emerald is rare because of the extremely exceptional conditions in which emeralds are formed.
The beautiful green hues symbolize rebirth and life abundant. The larger the stone and the more vivid the green, the more valuable the emerald. Inc. dba Masseys Jewelers. All Rights Reserved.
