I attached a 925 sterling silver wire bail to a natural green emerald raw gemstone beryl. This comes with a 24 inch silver filled chain. The emerald is green with inclusions of biotite mica schist. Emerald is the birthstone for May. The stone has been lightly polished.

The emerald gemstone is one of the many forms of Beryl and it is said to be the heart of Ireland. Emerald is a protection stone and it aids in success and prosperity. It is a stone of prophecy and the symbol of hope and preserving love. It also promotes memory and learning and can be used as a tranquilizer for a troubled mind. Emerald promotes harmony, wisdom and love. Giving your lover an Emerald will bring them closer if your motives are pure.

Green is the color associated with the element of earth. It is the color of life and growth. The earth element symbolizes a solid foundation and roots deep within the soil, grounding and calming you. Earth represents fertility and stability.

Emeralds come from three main emerald mining areas in Colombia and they are also found in Brazil, Canada, Egypt, and numerous other countries including the U.S.
