The term Emerald comes from the Latin word 'Esmeralda/Esmeraldus,' which originates in the ancient Greek word 'smaragdos,' which means 'green gem.' The green color is so appealing that it lifts this gem to the exclusive club of rare gemstones such as sapphires, rubies, and diamonds. Cleopatra, one of Egypt's most famous Pharaohs globally admired for her beauty, was known for her ardent passion for emeralds. Indeed, she was so enamored with emeralds that the mines in Egypt during her reign were known as 'Cleopatra's mines.'
Emerald is the birthstone for people born in May. Although it is found in several counties, the best stone, known as the Panna stone in India, comes from Colombia, Brazil, and Zambia. Colombian and Brazilian emeralds can be discriminated against based on some points which are-
Even the finest stones don't quite reach $5,000 per carat; thus, emeralds remain at the bottom end of the investment spectrum in terms of price. For new gemstone investors, it can still be a good starting place.
Due to their rarity and lower price than diamonds, emeralds make suitable investments. Despite having a wide range of colors, their deep green color makes them the most famous. The value and potential for appreciation will increase if you purchase an emerald of a higher quality without any apparent faults.
Fine Colombian emeralds are an alternate investment option; in contrast to more volatile holdings, their beauty and rarity ensure consistent value growth.
For several reasons, rough, uncut emeralds are less valuable than their faceted counterparts-unpolished ones from the Colombian Muzo Mine. A subpar gem cutter can transform an emerald stone into a cheap stone.
When wearing Panna (Emerald), a person should refrain from wearing Pukharaaj, Praval, Moonga, and Pearl. Wearing Panna, a gemstone for the Mercury planet, reduces the adverse effects of the Mercury planet, according to astrology.
Of course, Emeralds are strong enough for daily use because they rate a 7.5-8 on the hardness scale. Before engaging in any vigorous activity, you should take off your rings, just like with all fine jewelry (yes, even diamonds).
