For thousands of years Emeralds have been considered some of the most beautiful and valuable gems in existence. In many instances their value can exceed the value of a diamond of comparable carat weight.
Emeralds are rare and precious gems of the beryl family, distinguished by their rich green color.
The largest quantities of Emeralds are found in Brazil, Columbia and East Africa. At EmeraldandGemstones our experienced gemologists carefully grade each Brazilian Emerald. Upon extraction from the mines in the state of Bahia, Brazil and the region of Minas Gerais, each gem is carefully cut, polished and calibrated. All stones arrive to our customers ready to be set in a piece of fine jewelry. In addition to our high quality Brazilian Emeralds, we also offer other precious and semi-precious gemstones.
