Emerald is a vibrant green gemstone belonging to the beryl family and is one of the most cherished gemstones in the world. It ranks 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making it relatively durable, though it requires careful handling due to its natural inclusions, often referred to as "jardin" (garden). Emerald is the birthstone for May and has been associated with renewal, growth, and fertility, symbolizing rebirth and love. Its popularity stems from its lush green hue, which is unparalleled in intensity and depth, making it a favourite among royalty and celebrities alike. The gemstone's rich history, along with its association with wealth and power, continues to make emeralds highly sought after in fine jewelry.
