Go Green with Emeralds

If your birthday falls this month, then you know how your birthstone makes everyone green with envy.

May babies celebrate annually with the beautiful green stone, the Emerald.

Emeralds are a variety of the mineral beryl and are the most beautiful, intensely radiant color of green.  For years, Emeralds have represented beauty and constant love – making them a perfect sentimental gift for your loved one.

In ancient Rome, green was the color of Venus, the goddess of beauty and love.

So step into Carreras and step out wearing green emeralds for a fresh new goddess look!

Emeralds are often included, meaning they have natural impurities and these inclusions do not diminish the high regard in which emeralds are held. Even with such impurities, Emeralds in top quality can be even more valuable than diamonds.

Egyptians believed that emeralds stood for rebirth and fetility, and could ease childbirth. Emeralds have often been used to provide protection on journeys and are also associated with providing love and fidelity.
