| The traditional birthstone for May is emerald. The name emerald derives from Greek meaning "green stone." Its color varies from emerald green, light green, yellow green to dark green, the most important deposits being found in Columbia in or near pegmatite veins. Emeralds are formed by rising magma and metamorphism, and are a 7-8 on the Mohs' hardness scale. The price range for 7mm natural emerald earrings mounted in 14K gold would range between $650 to $5000, depending upon the quality. | ||||||||||||||

As we are all aware, the emerald is an extremely elegant and calamitously costly gemstone. Yet, most are not aware that
natural emeralds also contain inclusions, or imperfections in the stone, that are usually visible to the eye. With a
beautiful pair of emerald green cubic zirconia earrings, however, you can have all the gorgeous color and luster of natural
emerald without the imperfections.
I suggest the affordable and classy Jennifer Eagle Collection 7mm emerald green cubic zirconia earrings mounted in 14K gold for the month of May or to simply celebrate springtime! |
