Emerald

Lush. Untamed. Majestic.

Emerald, the birthstone for May, has captured the hearts and minds through out the ages. The word emerald comes from an ancient Greek “smaragdos”, meaning a “green gem”. Emerald is the perfect color for spring, evoking rebirth and renewal. Legend has it that emerald has the power to make its wearer more intelligent and quick-witted. Emeralds have been cherished by the Spanish conquistadors, Inca kings, Moguls, and Pharaohs. Cleopatra was known to have a passion for emerald and used it in her royal adornments. The finest of emeralds have been sourced from Colombia for more than 500 years.
