Emeralds, a variety of beryl, are renowned for their deep green color, attributed to the presence of chromium and vanadium. They often contain inclusions—natural “signatures” of the stone's formation—referred to as “jardins” (French for “gardens”). This term alludes to the intricate and often beautiful patterns formed by the inclusions within the stone. These "gardens" are unique to each emerald, making every gemstone truly special.
Inclusions are an integral part of an emerald's nature, enhancing its character and charm.
Emeralds have a hardness of 7.5 – 8 on the Mohs scale, meaning they are relatively hard but not as durable as diamonds or sapphires. However, their inclusions and natural brittleness make them particularly challenging to set.
To improve their durability and clarity, many emeralds undergo treatments such as oiling or the filling of micro-cracks with special substances. This is a widely accepted practice.
