Mythical Properties
The beautiful green colour of Emeralds has always made it a gemstone of great value throughout the centuries. Prized by the ancient Egyptians, Incas and Aztecs, Emerald has had many mythical properties attributed to it. According to Indian scriptures Emeralds are supposed to enhance well being and promise good luck. Emerald is also believed to give the owner a foresight into the future and symbolises rebirth and youth.

Price
Natural Emeralds are quite expensive and great care must be taken when purchasing them. Because of Emeralds value and popularity many forms of synthetics are produced. Make sure you purchase your Emeralds from a reputable dealer or have them checked over by a reputable gemmological institute.
We currently have Emerald jewellery starting at £450
