Emerald is a beautiful, green to bluish-green beryl gemstone, although it may come in yellowish nuances as well. These lovely stones are primarily appreciated for their amazing color, which is derived from chromium or vanadium impurities. These impurities make it quite fragile, compared to diamonds, but also just irresistible. It can be bought as rough emerald, and one jeweler can transform it into something extraordinary.

Emeralds are mostly found in Colombia, Brazil and Zambia, although the most beautiful and appreciated ones traditionally come from Colombia. It is mostly considered that they are of the highest quality, although, there are some new location in Zambia and Brazil that are the source of really interesting color variations you might find interesting. Yellowish stones are also really nice.

Although some people prefer those yellowish nuances, the fact is that gemstones that have bluish or pure green color are the most valuable ones. Their color shouldn't be too dark, but the important thing is really their saturation, that should be really vivid, because this will result in really shiny, brilliant gems. Good quality cut is also really important.

When buying rough stones, you get them by more affordable price. If you are experienced enough to recognize the real value, you can make a great profit in this. Some small imperfections may just be the thing that will produce the most beautiful pieces. In any case, even the leftovers may be used in making jewelry to remember, although, it would be nice to get a few large ones as well.

These sort of leftovers are sometimes used as they are, because this style is quite popular lately. Of course, only a good cutting can produce shiny, glittering stones you would expect. The fact is that emeralds look equally lovely when combined with white or yellow gold, and with silver as well. You just cannot resist them.

Emeralds bring balance into your life, but also the prosperity. They have calming properties, and stimulate your mind. Some people say that the color will slightly vary, depending on the owner of the stone. In any case, besides being incredibly beautiful, this gemstone will also make you feel better about yourself, and that is surely something to look forward to.

If you aren't so experienced in buying rough gemstones, make sure to learn more about them before deciding to buy some, or at least ask for advice first. Buying rough gemstones may also be a very good investment, if you know what to buy and what to look for when choosing your stones. That's why you should know more about it all.

This market can be complicated, and there is a whole lot of luck in it, too. In any case, you need to know what to look for. If you do this all for a hobby, or if you are serious about becoming an expert, one thing is for certain. You will simply enjoy in these amazingly beautiful stones, shiny and glittering, mysterious and lovely. If you make some money with this, even better.
