Were you born in May? Yes? this is something you need to know about your "Birthstone" Earworm (Caution ??): Emeralds are revered globally as one of the top three most valuable gemstones, alongside #Sapphires and #Rubies. However, it's fascinating and so strange to note, that about 90% of these stunning green stones are TREATED, predominantly oiling, and undergo treatment to enhance their clarity and overall appearance. This common practice involves filling the natural fissures within the gem with oil, significantly improving its transparency and color saturation. When considering the purchase of an emerald, investors and enthusiasts alike must understand the impact of such treatments on the value and authenticity of the stone. and yes, "Oil treatment" is typically ignored in the gem industry but the word “treatment” is hated and is no less than a nightmare for dealers. below is a stunning emerald that isn't real (obviously) but serves the sweetest eye candy for Emerald lovers. Can you tell by just looking at the image which natural emerald mine would this #emerald belong to if it was brought to life and tested by GIA (Gemological Institute of America)? #gemstones #borninmay #emeralds

?? Garnets: Timeless Beauty with Unique Qualities ?? At first glance, garnets might seem like a simple gemstone, but they carry an extraordinary richness that has fascinated cultures for centuries. Let's discover their unique qualities: ?? Versatile Color Spectrum While most people think of garnets as deep red, they actually come in a rainbow of hues—vivid greens, orange, pink, and even rare blues. ? Symbolism and Meaning Garnets have long symbolized love, loyalty, and protection. In some ancient cultures, they were believed to serve as talismans, guiding and safeguarding their wearer throughout life’s journey. ??

Exceptional Durability With a hardness of 6.5–7.5 on the Mohs scale, garnets are resilient enough to stand the test of time. This is why I wanted to share this fascinating chart by GIA about garnet quality factors.

Gemstones are not found inside mountains in a single color. A single rock contains different color shades of the same gemstone. This inconsistency is such a problem in my trade. Check this out. This weaver turned this inconsistency into an art. Hues-of-blue beads are of sapphires, hues-of-green beads are of emeralds, pink and its gradients are rubies, and yellow ones are topaz. The weaver paid so much attention to weave them in gradient and made a pattern, as well. There is significant profit potential to market such articles to countries where human labor is expensive and valued.
