Description
The Beryl family is home to some of the world’s most celebrated and valuable gemstones, including the legendary Emerald and the serene Aquamarine. While Red Beryl ranks among the rarest and most expensive gems on earth, pure beryl in its natural state is actually colorless. It is the trace elements within the crystal that give beryl its stunning spectrum of colors: green, blue, pink, red, and yellow.
The most prized member of this family, the Emerald, owes its rich green glow to the presence of chromium or vanadium, while Aquamarine derives its calming sea-blue shades from iron. Together, these gemstones represent both luxury and natural artistry, making the beryl family one of the most versatile and enchanting groups in the world of fine jewelry.
