Emerald Jewelry
Emerald is the rich green variety of beryl — the same mineral family as aquamarine — graded by both color saturation and clarity. The finest emeralds show vivid pure green with no secondary yellow or blue, the look historically associated with the Roman trade. Emerald sits at 7.5–8 on the Mohs scale, hard enough for jewelry but brittle, so protective settings matter.
ATL Luxury Jewelers stocks emerald across halo pendants, stud and drop earrings, solitaire and three-stone rings, and tennis-style bracelets set in 18K gold and platinum. Most natural emeralds are oiled or treated with clear resin to improve apparent clarity — standard and disclosed; untreated emeralds with strong color command significant premiums.
Top emerald provenance is Colombian (Muzo, Chivor) for the classic vivid green color. Zambian emeralds offer excellent clarity at better value, often with a slightly bluish-green cast that many buyers prefer.
Why ATL Luxury Jewelers for Emerald
For over 15 years, ATL Luxury Jewelers has sourced natural emerald at our Snellville, GA showroom. We disclose all treatments on every stone (minor oil, moderate oil, significant resin, etc.) — transparency often missing at lower-end gemstone counters.
Every emerald piece includes lifetime cleaning (gentle warm-soap method only), prong-tightening, and rhodium-plating (for white gold) at no charge — a policy held since 2009.
