EMERALD raw Brazil 2.5cm - 3.5cm

Product detailed description

Emerald is the green form of Beryl, which crystallizes as masses and prismatic crystals. This stone was at one point named Smaragdus, which translates to Emerald. The word Emerald translates to green stone. The most beautiful emerald the world has ever seen comes from the beautiful country of Colombia. Emeralds from this location contain some of the purest chromium/vanadium pigment inclusions, which give this gemstone a deep green glow. Emerald is also commonly found in Brazil, Russia, Africa, Egypt and Australia.

The velvety green colour of this fascinating stone is unmistakable and has long been a symbol of romance, hope and rebirth. As a rare gemstone associated with the goddess Venus, emerald is also commonly believed to aid in fertility. Emeralds were generally believed to protect lovers from infidelity. If the heart remained faithful, the gemstone would glow a beautiful green color, but it was believed that if the lover's heart went astray, the green color would lose its brilliance and richness. Wearing an emerald was believed to allow the wearer to control their passion and lust. In addition, wearing an emerald was believed to improve memory and increase intuitive intelligence, allowing you to think clearly about the past, present and future. Emeralds are considered to be energizing, calming and balancing because of their color. They are also believed to promote creativity and restore optimistic hope in dreams and visions. They are believed to bring good luck and are often seen in the coffers of business owners who are struggling to prosper in their endeavors.
