Questions

Is emerald good for an engagement ring?

Yes, with the right setting. Emerald is 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale and more brittle than sapphire, so a diamond cluster or a bezel that protects the edges suits everyday wear best.

Can you wear an emerald ring every day?

Yes, with some care. Remove it for heavy work and sport, keep it away from harsh chemicals and have the setting checked yearly.

Can you put an emerald ring in an ultrasonic cleaner?

No. Most emeralds are oiled and have natural fissures, and ultrasonic or steam cleaning can remove the oil or widen a fissure. Warm soapy water and a soft brush are safe.

Are emerald rings unlucky?

No. Emerald is the birthstone for May and the traditional gift for a 55th wedding anniversary, and it has been associated with rebirth and love since antiquity.
