Emerald

Emeralds come in a variety of light and dark shades of green, often with subtle background hues of other colors such as yellow, blue, brown or gray.  Emerald gemstones have been prized for thousands of years for their lush green hues and rare beauty.  The word emerald was derived from the French “esmeraude,” which comes from the Greek root "smaragdos,” meaning simply “green gemstone. 

Cabochon

The domed, cabochon emerald radiates with a rich color and gives the design an exceptional look.  As can be found in sapphires, there is a translucent variety of ruby that displays a six-point star when cut into a smooth domed cabochon.  Because the shells are natural, each cabochon will have a different pattern.
