History of the Emerald

The history of the emerald dates back to 4000 BC when it was first sold in Babylon markets. The emerald has fascinated many cultures for thousands of years and is worn by royalty and celebrities who believe in its ability to bring power and wealth. Carat for carat, the emerald may be worth two to three times as much as a diamond.

Although different cultures argue about its meaning, the emerald is thought to bring good luck, fertility, wealth, and victory in trials. Many leaders throughout the years wore clothing and jewelry adorned with emeralds. Cleopatra, the Queen of Egypt, had several emerald mines that produced many of the earliest gems known to human history, and some are still on display in museums around the world.

These Rough Emerald Earrings add a true touch of elegance to any jewelry collection. For more emerald jewelry, visit LaurenKlein.com.

What is Hammered Gold?

lisawampler — Fri, 04 May 2012 13:46:38 +0000

Hammered gold is created when a metalworker beats a piece of gold with a hammer to create decorative pieces for jewelry. These gold pieces have a “dimpled” look and are a trendy fashion statement.

Hammered gold dates back some 5,000 years when Egyptian artisans discovered that gold could be manipulated in this manner and still remain durable. The hammered gold created by the Egyptians was mainly used for gilding (applying gold leaf).

Today’s hammered gold makes beautiful jewelry pieces.

As you can see in this Hammered Yellow Gold and Diamond Disc Necklace, the dimpled effect of the hammered gold makes quite a unique necklace. Visit LaurenKlein.com for more hammered gold jewelry.

May Birthstone: Emerald

May’s birthstone is the emerald. The emerald gemstone is a mineral called Beryl, and is associated with patience, understanding, and foresight. The beautiful green color of the emerald is caused by small amounts of chromium and traces of iron in the stone.

Emerald gemstones exhibit flaws much like a diamond, but instead of being a negative, these flaws are considered part of the gem’s character and assure the buyer of a genuine stone.

This Emerald Gold and Diamond Disc Bracelet would make a great gift for someone with a May birthday. Visit LaurenKlein.com for this and other stunning emerald jewelry.
