Emerald\u00a0is the vibrant green\u00a0gemstone variety of the mineral beryl. This incandescent\u00a0gemstone has been a favorite\u00a0throughout history. It is highly regarded for its incredible color and unique internal characteristics. The beryl mineral family holds several other\u00a0notable gemstones including the seawater blue aquamarine\u00a0and delicate blush hued\u00a0morganite. However, emerald is usually the most well known\u00a0member of the beryl family. It was been prized and collected by royalty and celebrity alike for thousands of years. There are of course are other green hued gemstones, like peridot or tourmaline, but emerald is always the standard which all other greens are compared to.<\/p>\n

Emerald receives its intense color from traces of chromium and some times vanadium in its mineral structure.<\/p>\n

This gemstone\u00a0can be found worldwide, but the largest producer of emeralds today is Columbia. In antiquity, emeralds were mined in Egypt, India and Austria since the 14th century.<\/p>\n

Its intense green color emulates\u00a0new growth and spring time. Meaning it is the perfect companion birthstone to the month of May, when flowers begin to bud.<\/p>\n

However, this glowing-green gemstone shown here could\u00a0make a stunning right hand ring.
