May gemstone, Emerald!

Posted by Angeline Weiss on

May babies, this one is for YOU...

While we will forever love our diamonds, we also have many gemstones within our collection. Aquamarines with ocean hues, the dramatic and #Kasiatribe favorite black onyx, feminine and playful morganite, and of course - the elegant and classically beautiful Emerald.

Emeralds go way back! The first emerald mines were known to have been in Ancient Egypt, dating all the way back to 3500BC. Cleopatra was known for her immense love of emeralds, and they have ever since been associated with royalty and opulence. We'll take that!

Their totally unique color variations, from faint green all the way to deep saturated forest green, will forever be striking and always desirable. When hand selecting each emerald for the collection, Kasia looks for stones in the middle color range, preferably with a bit of blue undertone wherever possible. We love emeralds for many different reasons - specifically as an alternative bridal heirloom, or as a piece one can purchase to show themself some love. Although please remember that emerald is a softer stone, and can be susceptible to cracking if struck in a certain way with enough force. Therefore, treat emerald pieces with extra love and care!

Sometimes referred to as the “Stone of Successful Love,” emerald is thought to stimulate the heart chakra. It is said to have a healing effect on the emotional and physical heart. Fun fact: Emerald represents unconditional love, unity, kindness, and friendship. 

And let’s be honest, we could all use a little of that in our life right now.

With some green hued love,

KJ
