FAQs

What makes emeralds green?

Emeralds owe their vibrant green color to the presence of chromium, and sometimes vanadium, in their crystal structure.

How can I tell if an emerald is real?

Real natural emeralds often have visible inclusions known as 'jardin'. Using a jeweler's loupe, you can spot these imperfections, which are common in loose emeralds.

What's the most famous emerald out there?

The Bahia Emerald is one of the largest and most famous, known for its incredible size and the legal battles surrounding it.

How should I clean my emerald jewelry?

To clean emerald jewelry, use warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat, which can damage the stone, especially if it's an emerald cabochon or treated loose emerald.

What's the best setting for an emerald ring?

A bezel or halo setting works best for an emerald cut ring, as it helps protect the edges of the loose emerald from knocks and scratches.

Are emeralds more expensive than diamonds?

Top-quality Colombian emeralds can sometimes be rarer and more expensive than diamonds, depending on carat weight, gemstone clarity, and the stone's origin.

Can emeralds scratch easily?

Although emeralds score 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, their inclusions can make them brittle and prone to chipping, so they need to be handled with care.

I've made several purchases through GemSelect in the past, although not within the last six months. Their gems are always beautiful and I have never had an issue with their prices or their stones. Even when I'm not buying, I love scrolling through their website, which is very user friendly. I especially appreciate being able to change the listing order to your own liking, such as most to least expensive, largest to smallest, etc. As with most online orders, however, I think the shipping charges are not commensurate with the actual weight of the items shipped.

I always enjoy the selection and the unique cuts I can find here. I would love to see more hex cuts tho! Maybe some rose cuts too!

I have been buying gems for several years off and on and love their selection and great low prices. I started out wanting to get an example of each type of gem but after looking at all the types of gems and reading about them I realize it is almost impossible for me to do. It took me years just to read about them all. Gem Select is the best gem site you can find. For information or to buy. Steve M.

Understanding Emerald Grading and Clarity

When purchasing loose emeralds, it’s essential to consider their gemstone clarity and emerald grading. These factors greatly influence the gem’s value and appearance. High-quality natural emeralds are often graded based on inclusions and transparency, so knowing the difference can help you make an informed choice for your next piece of emerald jewelry.

Choosing the Right Carat Weight

The carat weight of a loose emerald impacts both its size and price. Whether you’re looking for a subtle accent stone or a statement piece, understanding the importance of carat weight will help guide your decision. Explore our wide range of sizes, from smaller faceted emeralds to larger Colombian emeralds.
