GEM BLEU Emerald and Diamond Ring in 18K

Because the rich green color of emerald is the color of spring, it has long symbolized love and rebirth. As Pliny said 2,000 years ago: “nothing greens greener.” Emerald is the gemstone of Venus, the goddess of love. Legend says that the Garden of Paradise is carpeted with emerald. The first known emerald mines were in Egypt, which were worked as early as 3500BC. May’s birthstone is also the gem of the 20th and 35th wedding anniversaries. Wear emerald and every day is a fresh start.

In gold-loving Italy, 18K yellow gold is the most popular precious metal. That’s because it’s 75% pure gold, with the rich buttery color that we think of when we picture gold. That’s more gold than the 58.5% you’ll find in 14K gold jewelry. It’s more expensive than 14K gold too, of course, because it has more intrinsic value. Most high-end jewelry brands work in 18k gold because they feel it is more luxurious and the best gold alloy.
