My Introduction
The last Pharaoh of Egypt was famously the beautiful Cleopatra. She had a wondrous array of emerald jewellery, including such as emerald rings, and she was always thought to have acknowledged them as being some of her very favourites from her collection.
Today although it is still indeed the favourite of many, it tends to be rather more of a discerning taste, basically I believe down to the colour green, which unfortunately is not everyone's ideal colour variation.
If you do enjoy the wonderful colours of emerald jewellery, and are in the mood to purchase more, then you are definitely going to have a mind boggling assortment to choose from.
5 Great Reasons
1. Tradition Of Emerald
This crystal is still one of the most valuable of gemstone around today, and all through history as being the favourite adornment for many rich, famous and Royal folk.
2. Colour
In Ancient Rome, their Goddess of Love promoted the facts that this gem could give everlasting youthfulness and romantic thoughts. Venus was also said to be the colour of grass green, the same as the very best of emerald hues.
3. History Of Emerald
Many ancient civilizations believed this gemstone to give out wisdom, patience and power to those who wear it. But watch out, because it was also assumed to change colour if worn by those who are adulterous! It also offered increased ability to fight off certain disease, and hopefully grant eternal life, otherwise known as "the eternal spring" to those who adorned it.
4. Birthstone
If you are born in the month of May, and/or have any symbolic link in Astrology to the Star Sign for Cancer, then this is the best crystal for you.
5. Anniversary Stone Emerald
If you have any celebrations for either 20 or 25 years, for example birthdays or wedding anniversaries, then the emerald should be top of your list.
In Conclusion
Emerald eternity rings and emerald engagement rings, as well as all other emerald rings and indeed emerald jewellery, will be certainly found in all manner of size, shape, colour and clarity. Clarity is second on the scale of importance when it comes to how valuable it is, with colour being first. Clarity should not really be detrimental to cost unless present so extremely to impede colour. In fact the natural inclusions that are to be found in these crystals are said to increase the uniqueness and beauty to many a potential purchaser.
Yet, if these inclusions are to be found too near the stone surface, or in fact other cracks are already present, then it is far better to leave these stones alone if looking to buy. They could well probably over time start to open further or even completely crack the stone in two.
If you are going to be experiencing more arduous work or pastimes, then by taking off your emerald jewellery, specifically your Emerald Rings, you will be ensuring that they are not going to be exposed to any unnecessary damage by knocks or scratches. They are softer in nature than many other gems, so likewise when you indeed do need to clean them please only use mild washing up liquid and warm water. Never be tempted to use the ultrasonic jewellery cleaning equipment that is available.
These rings that are to be found amongst all other kinds of Emerald Jewellery, although not to everyone's taste, are definitely one of my favourites. If they indeed do exhibit the eternal life, beautifying and loving properties that are so assumed from legend, they are definitely the ring for any lady of mine...
