The Emerald is one of the most coveted and revered gems in the world of precious stones, known for its fascinating green colour, which varies from a light green to a deep emerald green. It is the most precious gemstone in the beryl group, which also includes aquamarine, heliodor and morganite.
The largest supplier of emeralds and the best quality is Colombia. Other deposits can be found in Brazil, Zambia, Madagascar, Pakistan, Zimbabwe and Russia, among others. As all our pieces come from Brazil, we focus on the characteristics of this area.
Emerald is found in many brazilian states, including: Nova Era in Minas Gerais, Campo Formoso and Brumado in Bahia State and Santa Terezinha in Goiás. It is know that the Brazilian Emeralds have green color due to Vanadium content instead that from Chromium. For that reason they last few years to be accepted from the international gemological market.
As with tourmalines, some emeralds are cut in Brazil included in quartz or with its matrix. Gemstones of quartz with included emerald crystals has reached the market only in the last few years. The emerald are low quality opaque crystals of nice color, and usually zoned with white bands, included in a withish-yellowish milky quartz matrix, very rarely in clear quartz.
The rough has been treated and cut passing through Teofilo Otoni gem market in Minas gerais. Despite this, the rough probably comes from Bahia deposit, because the Minas Gerais emeralds are characterized by black schistous matrix and these are white.
