More about Emerald Necklaces & Pendants

What should I look for in a green emerald necklace?

When choosing an emerald necklace, focus on three key qualities:

1. Color: This is the most important factor. The most prized emeralds have a deep, vivid green color, sometimes with a slight bluish hue.

2. Clarity: It is natural for emeralds to have inclusions, often called "jardin" (garden). These are accepted as part of the stone's unique character, as long as they don't impact its overall beauty.

3. Cut: A well-executed cut, most famously the rectangular "emerald cut," will maximize the gem's rich color and brilliance.

What determines the price of an emerald necklace?

The price of an emerald necklace varies widely, driven primarily by the quality of the emerald itself. The key factors are:

Color: This is the most important element. A deep, vivid green commands a much higher price than a lighter or less saturated stone.
Carat Weight & Clarity: Value increases significantly with size. Higher clarity (with fewer natural inclusions or "jardin") also raises the price.
Origin: Emeralds from sought-after locations, particularly Colombia, command a premium.

The necklace's metal (platinum or gold) and any accompanying diamonds also contribute to the final cost.

Are all of your emerald necklaces from Colombia?

While many of our most prized emerald necklaces are indeed from the famed mines of Colombia, we also source exceptional gems from other world-class locations like Zambia. Colombian emeralds are celebrated as the benchmark for quality due to their warm, deep green color.

Our mission is to acquire the most beautiful emeralds for our collection, regardless of origin, ensuring every piece has a unique story.

Are Astteria's emeralds real or lab-grown?

We strictly use real, natural emeralds in our jewelry, ensuring that every necklace holds authentic value and unique character.
