Precious Gemstones: Emerald and Ruby
By Cityz | October 10, 2008
Although diamonds are considered king, there are other gemstones that are considered precious. One such gemstone is emerald. Ancient people love emerald because of its power to heal certain diseases and also for its beauty. Oftentimes, the gem has a mossy silk appearance. If you can find flawless emerald specimens, expect a very high price that can even be compared to that of diamonds. You can find green Brazilian varieties of emerald, spodumene varieties, and corundum varieties.
If you love red, you should get ruby. This gemstone is available in different shades such as ruby red, purplish red, pigeon blood, and rose red. The most highly prized ruby stone is the clear deeper shades. You can also get star rubies. Beware though that there are rubies being sold in the market that are not actually genuine rubies.
These are the balas ruby (spinel), bohemian ruby (rose quartz), Siberian ruby (pink or red tourmaline), Cape ruby, Montana, Rocky Mountain, and American ruby (these are garnet varieties). If you happen to visit Myanmar, this is the best place to get a genuine ruby because this is the place where most rubies are mined. You can also get rubies in Afghanistan, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Soviet republics, and China.
