Dedicated by the Greeks to Goddess Venus, and believed to be able to reveal faithfulness of a lover, this is one gemstone that was known to the earliest civilizations. The most celebrated of queens in history, Cleopatra, is often famous as much for her nose, as for her emeralds. Fact is the mines in Egypt were named after her.
As with other gems, in the early days, emeralds were often confused with other green gems like jasper and green sapphire. With advent of mineral gemology, the distinction is now very clear. While there are a number of terms like grass green, verdant green, or other greens, it is mostly an approximation of the color of an emerald, for grasses also vary among themselves in shades of the same color. So, it remains debatable which are the most valuable emerald hues and tones, but most gem dealers concur that pure colors are more desirable than dull, muddy ones. They are usually cut to maximize the intensity of color, not size. And when it is a token of your commitment to a relationship, or just that time when you want that extra dash of color with your outfit, a few gems can outrival the choice and appeal of something as rare and impressive as an emerald pendant.
