Interesting Facts About Emerald Earrings......

Emerald earrings on sale at the Diamond Store make great presents as these gemstones are the modern and traditional birthstone for the month of May, zodiac stone for Taurus and the talisman stone for Gemini. Emeralds can also be given as a gift for 20th and 35th anniversaries and as an alternate stone for the 55th wedding anniversary.

The name emerald comes from the French "esmeraude", which in turn comes from the Greek "smargados", which rather predictably means green gemstone. However there is nothing predictable about the emerald itself which is believed to bring good luck and give the wearer prophetic gifts. They symbolise fidelity, goodness and love.

The Book of Revelations in the Bible tells us that the throne of God is made from emeralds, and that the Holy Grail is carved from a huge emerald that fell from Satan’s crown when he was told to leave Heaven. Queen Cleopatra famously loved emeralds above all other gemstones with the oldest known discoveries being near the Red Sea in Egypt and later referred to as “Cleopatra’s Mines”.

Emeralds are now mainly found in Colombia (which is where the finest stones come from and where the Incas and Aztecs regarded them as holy), Brazil, Africa, India, Pakistan, Russia and Egypt. They are also mined in Australia, Norway, and the United States.
