The emerald ring

CHARACTERISTICS OF EMERALD

The emerald is among the most popular gemstones, and the emerald ring is a highly sought-after piece of jewelry. In order not to be mistaken and to choose a gem of good quality, it is useful to know its specificities.

In terms of purity, it is very rare to find a stone that is perfectly pure to the naked eye, emeralds generally have inclusions, but the best stones are those that are the most luminous. In this case, the inclusions are fewer, less visible and do not make the stone too opaque to prevent the circulation of light. This particularity of the emerald is part of its qualities and the inclusions are even known under the name of “emerald garden”. In terms of color, the more intense the green, the more the stone is sought after, but it is up to everyone to choose according to their tastes. Indeed, a stone can be less intense, but have an excellent purity while a too dark stone will be less brilliant. Similarly, for the weight, the heavier the stone, the more the price will increase.

WHICH METAL TO CHOOSE FOR AN EMERALD RING?

Gold is the perfect setting for an emerald ring. This precious metal is particularly resistant. You can choose to mount your stone on yellow gold, white gold or rose gold depending on the effect to be created. Depending on your budget, you will have the choice between 18 carat gold, also called 750 thousandths gold, or 9 carat or 375 thousandths gold. The main difference is at the level of the alloy, that is to say that there is not the same amount of gold in each composition. It must, in fact, be remembered that pure 24-carat gold has a too soft texture which does not allow it to be worked directly, hence the need for alloying with other metals.

To guarantee its authenticity, gold jewelery generally has 2 hallmarks: the guarantee hallmark, an eagle's head for 18-carat gold and a clover for 9-carat gold, and a maker's mark, that of the manufacturer.

THE EMERALD RING, AN ODE TO HOPE

The emerald ring is distinguished by its beautiful green color, deep and shimmering. This slightly fragile gemstone conveys a message of hope, as does its soothing, invigorating and natural hue. In traditional culture, the emerald is often associated with luck and hope. To offer oneself or to offer as a gift, the emerald ring also symbolizes fertility, renewal and delicacy. This is why an emerald ring is often chosen as a birth gift.

WHICH STYLE OF EMERALD RING TO CHOOSE?

The emerald is doing very well alone, alone accompanied, or in trilogy. Due to the fragility of this stone, the most common shape is an oval cut or cut with canted sides, commonly called "emerald cut". Depending on your tastes, the jeweler can offer a pear cut, especially for a pendant mounting, but it is advisable to prefer rectangular or octagonal stones on the rings to allow the gem to be more resistant to shocks.

If you are looking for jewelry to offer for a birthday, the emerald ring is particularly suitable for those born in the month of May. The best is to opt for a design in harmony with the taste of the person. All you have to do is observe the adornments she usually wears and harmonize the style with her preferences.
