About this Item: Emerald, the most famous member of the beryl family, has long been associated with legends and beliefs. It was once thought to endow the wearer with the ability to foresee the future when placed under the tongue, reveal truth, and protect against evil spells. Emerald was also believed to cure diseases like cholera and malaria, as well as make the wearer an eloquent speaker and reveal the truth or falseness of a lover's oath.

To maintain the emerald jewelry, use a soft microfiber cloth to remove any accumulated oil and dirt. Avoid using an ultrasonic cleaner, as it can remove the oils that have been applied to the emeralds and cause damage to the gemstones. Always put on your jewelry after applying makeup, hairspray, or perfume, as the chemicals may potentially harm the emeralds.

Emerald is a green to greenish-blue variety of beryl, a mineral species that also includes aquamarine and other colored beryls. Gem experts differ on the exact degree of green that distinguishes an emerald from a less-expensive green beryl. While some in the trade tend to call any green beryl colored by chromium an emerald, most gemologists, laboratories, and dealers consider a stone to be green beryl when its color is 'too light' to be classified as an emerald.

Emerald's lush green hue has captivated souls and imaginations since ancient times. The name 'emerald' derives from the ancient Greek word for green, 'smaragdus.' Pliny the Elder, in his Natural History published in the 1st century AD, noted that 'nothing greens greener' than emerald and described how early lapidaries used it to soothe their eyes and alleviate fatigue. Even today, the color green is known for its ability to relieve stress and eye strain.
