In this article the experts in our store will tell you about the use of emerald jewelry pieces nowadays and the history of the most famous emeralds in the world.
Emerald is an amazing high class gemstone, which sometimes excels diamond in terms of quality and price. Its deep green color symbolizes greenery, life and harmony, it attracts the attention of the people surrounding one, wearing emerald jewelry.
The ancient people considered emerald to bring happiness to decent people with good thoughts and intentions; otherwise it could even bring misery to its owner. Emerald brings luck to priests, magicians and visionaries. The great visionary Nostradamus wore emerald ring to better predict the future; roman emperor Nero, who was short-sighted, used an emerald monocle to observe the gladiator fights in the Coliseum.
Many tales and legends are connected with this precious stone. One of them tells that when Satan was sent to hell, he had lost an emerald from his crown. Talented craftsmen of one queen took this huge stone and carved a precious chalice out of it. The queen gave this chalice to the wise king Solomon. This vessel, called the Holy Grail, was later used by Jesus during the Lord’s Supper, after that it was lost. Many generations of crusaders and Templar knights were hunting to get this treasure, making a person immortal, bet they couldn’t find it.
Emeralds belong to the class of stones, which are being inherited, that way it gives help, support and clarity to the people inheriting it. In order this stone served you as a lucky charm, according to the ancient beliefs, you should wear it on your mercurial finger.
Natural emeralds of highest quality are extremely rare, that’s why their cost is estimated at £10,000 per carat (0.2 grams). The stones that have historical value, or emerald jewelry cost much more.
The Hindu consider emerald to be connected to lofty matters, that’s why they cover them with sacred texts and ornaments. One of such emeralds found in 1695 s called the Mogul Emerald; it weights 217 carats and its height makes up to 10 cm. This amazing stone was bought at Christies public sale in 2001 for $2,2 million dollars.
As for other legendary stones, we also know about five Peruvian emeralds Fernando Cortes gave to his bride and doing this have insulted the Spanish queen Isabella, who wanted them badly. All of those stones had very unusual shape – a rose, a bell, a fish with golden eyes, bull’s horns and a cup embellished with gold. In 1541 the traces of these treasures were lost, now they might be stored in some billionaire’s private collection or they might be taken back to Peru.
There are a couple more amazing stories about emeralds, connected to royal families. They were stolen, given and taken away.
Now the emerald jewelry pieces are worn by the richest people and famous celebrities. They are considered to be the symbol of wealth and well-being, because not every person can afford such luxury. But, unlike golden and diamond pieces, emeralds are also a sign of good taste and sophistication.
Emeralds look great in combinations with white gold, silver and platinum, diamonds and tourmalines. Unique and beautiful emerald stones add elegance and classic touch to any appearance and clothes, make you look extraordinary and rich.
