Emerald Brilliant
Emeralds, The Green Eyed Aphrodite
Emeralds are the stones that were placed in the eyes of queens and princess' in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. The perfect green hue that could be found in the human iris is found in this stone. In an eye catching way it captures light and emits it Due to its brilliant hue of green it is known as green-eyed Aphrodite.
Property Values
The number of cuts, carat, color and clarity are the factors used to grade the gemstone. Normally, in the grading of colored gemstones, color is by far the most important criterion. However, in the grading of emerald, clarity or crystal is considered a close second. The above two conditions are both very important. A good quality gem should have high degree of transparency apart from which should have a pure verdant green hue.
Color
Emeralds occur in hues ranging from yellowish green to bluish green. Green should be the primary hue color. Emeralds are those that have medium to dark in tone.
Clarity
Naked eye is used to grade the quality of a emerald which is in contrast to the grading in diamond which is based on loupe standards. An emerald is considered to be flawless if no fissures or inclusions are detected by the naked eye. most emeralds are treated with cedar oil or synthetic oil to enhance the apparent clarity since it is difficult to find emeralds without surface inclusions or fissures . Disclosure of the treatment should be done while selling an emerald.
Synthetic Emerald
Contrary to widespread belief, emeralds are lab-created. World's first and largest manufacturers of synthetic emeralds are Carroll Chatham and Pierre Gilson.Synthetic emeralds are often referred to as "created" emeralds. They are also called as "Emerita" and "Symeralds". 1mm growth rate per month on both sides of a colorless beryl seeds would produce a 7mm emerald in a period of seven month.

Egypt, Russia and the SWAT region of Pakistan were the mine sources of emeralds in olden days. The Colombian "trapiche emerald" or the star emerald is a rare stone of its kind.
