It is difficult to gain access to the mines that produce the world's finest exquisite emeralds. Our purchasers are able to visit the mines after arduous discussions with Columbian politicians. To evade the looters waiting along the highways, they employ helicopters.
The stones from the Muzo mine are without a doubt the most valuable. They have a wonderful green color, made up of roughly 48% blue and 52% yellow: a deep, velvety, dark green. There are usually a lot of contaminants. Yes, there are flaws that detract from the stone's brilliance, yet they are tolerated because huge, perfectly pure stones are rare. Furthermore, it is to lessen the impact of nature's impurities, or as professionals prefer to poetically refer to them, "the flaws." 
Furthermore, unlike diamonds, weight does not have a significant impact on the price of the stone. The pavilion’s surface is very essential. The emerald’s density is considerably lower than that of the other three stones. This means that a 2-carat emerald with the same weight and proportions will have a surface 50 percent larger than a sapphire with the same weight and proportions. 
Choose an emerald that is a wonderful green color with a velvety sheen, has no internal cracks or inclusions (emeralds with external cracks should be avoided), is well-cut, and weighs between 3 and 7  carats to ensure you are making a solid investment. There should be no small holes in the bezel. 
Because Emeralds have long been used as investments, this is one of the most well-known questions.  Emeralds have been used to hedge against inflation since the Egyptians' time. When the American economy was booming, Americans were buying Gemstones and Diamonds instead of keeping their money in banks and earning very low interest rates on their deposits. 
Emeralds are a good investment because they are reasonably priced. Emeralds had a terrific year in 2013, 2014, and 2015 when they were named “Color of the Year 2013,” which resulted in a huge spike in demand, and all the celebrities began wearing them. Also, the price collapse in the 1990s, which sent Emerald prices skyrocketing, is nothing to be afraid of because the worst has already happened, and now only wonderful things may happen.

Green is a favourite among jewelers this year, as overstock from the previous year makes these stones a must-have in every store. The widespread awareness of "being green" has had a significant impact on Emerald prices and demand. Emerald appears to be such a natural, lovely gift from Mother Nature that every woman would like to have at least one piece of Emerald jewelry in her jewelry collection. 

Most people think of diamonds when they think of rare and expensive gemstones, but emeralds are more than 20 times rarer than diamonds and, as a result, attract a higher price. Emeralds are an excellent choice for people trying to maximize the size of a stone while staying within a budget, as they appear to be larger.

APPRAISAL OF AN EMERALD

The same factors that affect the value of diamonds, including as color, clarity, carat weight, and cut, apply to emeralds and other coloured gemstones. However, distinct elements are emphasized. The less color in a diamond, unless you go all the way to fancy coloured diamonds, the better. It's the exact opposite with emeralds.

COLOR

It's all about the color. The more expensive an emerald is, the more pure and rich its color is. As the depth and saturation of color improve, so do the cost of emeralds. The most coveted emeralds are yellowish-green in color.

CUT

The conventional emerald cut, a rectangular step cut, is the most popular of all the conceivable geometries. The emerald cut complements the hexagonal crystal's refractive index, providing a good yield as well as a pleasing appearance. Unlike round brilliant cut diamonds, where the facet arrangement is planned for optimal reflection, emerald cuts enhance the depth of color in jewels. An emerald cut allows visitors to feel the gem's richness by staring into the crystal's interior to explore the subtle depths of greens rather than depending on facet reflections for effect.

CARAT

If a coloured stone weighs exactly an even carat or more, its price skyrockets. The price of large emeralds, which are rare, rises faster but more proportionately. When the weight of an emerald doubles, the price generally quadruples. Premium rates are paid for eye-clean emeralds above three carats with good colour, which are often greater than comparable diamonds.

CLARITY

The GIA divides coloured stones into three clarity categories: 
Aquamarine, citrine, topaz, and green tourmaline are examples of:

• Type I gemstones, which are "typically virtually inclusion-free." 
• Type II gems, such as ruby, sapphire, garnet, peridot, amethyst, spinel, and zircon, are "nearly always included."
• Type III gems, such as emerald and red tourmaline, are "almost always included."

Emeralds are the only large gemstones that are anticipated to have noticeable inclusions as Type III gems; in fact, any specimen without them is immediately questionable as a synthetic or counterfeit.  Even yet, inclusions have an impact on the pricing. The natural emerald with the fewest inclusions is the most valued if all other factors are equal.

INCLUSIONS

These are the internal features of gem crystals. Fractures, trapped liquids, growth lines, embedded  crystals of other materials, gas, cavities, spots, specks, and a variety of other tiny occurrences that some  label faults and others call beauty marks can all be found. With emeralds, inclusions are a given no matter how you look at them.

CONCLUSION

Emeralds are linked to hedonistic and pleasure-loving Taureans since they are generally associated with romance. The bright, vibrant green colour may have aided in the formation of this somewhat ill-advised union. Mercury, the other May baby, is the ruling planet of the emerald. Emeralds, like the quick-witted planet of communication, are said to improve intelligence, memory, and analytical skills, as well as intuition. The combination of emeralds and diamonds is a cosmological and artistic tour de force for Taurus-Gemini combos who want the best of both worlds.

The combination of emeralds and diamonds is a timeless classic - consider emerald drops on a diamond necklace or huge emerald ear clips with diamond jackets. Set in beautiful cocktail rings, mossy green emeralds with light blue or yellow sapphires create an organic blend of main and secondary colours.  Vintage charm can be found in darker (Indian) cabochon emeralds set with rubies in an old school gold necklace (like the Tamilian manga malai) or lighter cabochons set with pink rubies in a Victorian-style bracelet. Indian corals' bright orange-red tone contrasts wonderfully with the delicacy of emeralds in contemporary designs for an edgy effect.

Wear emerald, aquamarine, light green turquoise, and jade tumbling bead necklaces fashioned together on a clean chain to reflect an aquatic theme.
