??? Just a handful of rough emeralds! ? Have you ever seen a #roughgemstone? I’m amazed by the miracle of transformation – how different it looks after it’s cut and polished! ⁣ ⁣ Delighted to have been a part of @gemfields masterclass, knowing that all the beauties I’m holding are responsibly sourced. Just a couple of interesting facts about buying #emeralds:⁣ ⁣ – Emerald is an investment! Next to a #diamond, one-carat emerald will look larger than one-carat diamond because it weighs quite a bit less. But if you want the true beauty of emerald to shine, then you’re going to have to invest in at least 5 carats. Before you decide to buy, find out where the emerald was sourced and obtain the certificate #emeraldring ⁣ – Remember: emerald is fragile! #Emeralds are relatively hard stones, but they are brittle and if mistreated can chip, scratch and even break. When choosing setting for your emerald, you will need something like a bezel setting that offers utmost protection and supports the stone completely #emeraldjewelry #mayfairlondon ⁣ Head to the link in my profile to continue reading a comprehensive guide to buying an emerald!? @LizaUrla #jewelleryface #gemologue #gemfields #gemfieldslovescolour⁣ #emeraldrough ? @maxcisottiphotographer
