Understanding This Piece
About Emerald
Emerald is the green variety of beryl, colored by trace chromium and vanadium. The richest-saturated emeralds — from Colombia, Zambia, and Ethiopia — command premium prices and have been prized since antiquity. Emerald scores 7.5–8 on Mohs (softer than diamond, sapphire, or ruby) and contains natural inclusions called 'jardin' that are accepted as part of the stone's character. Emerald is the May birthstone and 20th/35th-anniversary gem, and requires gentler care — avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals to protect the surface oils.
About 14K Rose Gold
14K rose gold gets its romantic pink hue from a copper-rich alloy — typically around 25% copper combined with silver. The color is warm, slightly less intense than 10K rose, and ages beautifully without tarnishing or requiring rhodium replating. Rose gold has been a defining engagement-ring trend of the last decade, pairing especially well with morganites, peach sapphires, and oval and cushion-cut diamonds. It flatters most skin tones and reads as both vintage and modern.
About Fashion Necklaces
Fashion necklaces are trend-driven designs that emphasize style innovation over heritage construction — often featuring distinctive shapes, contemporary geometric elements, mixed-media construction, or signature designer detailing. Every fashion piece at ATL Luxury Jewelers is still hand-finished and crafted in solid precious metal (not plated alloys) so the design holds up to long-term wear.
