EMERALD


Emeralds are traditionally a deep green color or some shade of green. The darker the color green, the more expensive the emerald becomes. It is a variety of beryl which is a clear transparent gem that comes in several colors. The emerald is somewhat fragile and it is difficult to find a “perfect” emerald. It is the birthstone for the month of May. It is ranked along with diamonds, rubies, and sapphires as the top stones for jewelry.
