Emerald

Item Description

Gem enthusiasts the world over agree that no gem is more elegant, alluring, and desirable than a top-quality Colombian emerald with precision cutting. And that is exactly what we have here, but in a size that is affordable yet with enough visual appeal to catch the eye. A famed gem and the traditional birthstone for May, it is quite clean for the material (lightly included which is good, as this indicates natural origin); and shows a classic neon-like bluish-green color which displays fabulously. This is a fine gem with an exquisitely well cut form and brilliance, from a major importer that is highly recommended. This has been enhanced with the ExCel treatment for clarity, the modern industry standard for emeralds these days. Note that nearly all emeralds have some sort of enhancement, disclosed or not, and often the traditional oil clarity enhancement wears off over time. Unlike standard oiling treatments, which need to be repeated over time, ExCel produces a stable result. This is a fine gem for investment or jewelry, Retail value $3000. (E)
