Emerald

Known as the Queen of Gems and the gem of queens, EMERALD has been treasured for at least 5,000 years.

The ancients held EMERALD in great esteem, believing it sharpened the wearer's eyesight and mind. Travelers relied on EMERALDS as protection against the hazards and perils of long journeys.

EMERALD's unique range of green tones are especially soothing. Welcoming spring, EMERALD is the traditional May birthstone. It is also the recommended gemstone for those celebrating their twentieth and thirty-fifth anniversaries.
