Emeralds are one of the rarest and most valuable gemstones in the world even more so than diamonds in top quality. What makes them unique is their vibrant green hue, caused by trace amounts of chromium and vanadium. Each emerald, like the one shown here, naturally forms with tiny inclusions—often called the gem’s “jardin” (French for garden)—making every stone beautifully unique, just like a fingerprint. These inclusions are not flaws, but nature's signature.
