Emerald, the birthstone for May, is dedicated to Venus, goddess of love. To some ancients it meant eternal youth and faithfulness or lovers. Cleopatra had an almost inexhaustable supply of emeralds from her mines in Egypt. Most genuine emeralds contain tiny inclusions. Their greatest beauty lies in the color which should be a rich green with blue overtones. Emeralds are a very popular stone. Stop in and see our fine selection.
