925 silver ring with emerald

The emerald is one of the four most precious stones in the world, along with diamond, sapphire and ruby. Unlike diamonds, whose clarity is assessed using a magnifying glass, the clarity of emeralds is often assessed with the naked eye. When it comes to the rarity of emeralds compared to diamonds, emeralds are actually over 20 times rarer than diamonds! Nevertheless, around 6 tons of them are mined every year! Emerald is the birthstone for the month of May. It is also considered a gemstone for the zodiac signs Taurus, Gemini and Cancer. The soft, calming color of the emerald represented a dense rainforest. Just like the rainforest, the emerald represents the connection to nature and embodies growth and regeneration. Emeralds are also associated with creativity and inspiration, making it a popular gemstone for many artists. Emerald rings like this “Exotic Emerald” ring are also very popular as engagement rings and represent a cheaper yet very attractive alternative to the classic diamond ring.
