When choosing an emerald engagement ring, you can't go past the brilliant depth and vivid color of the emerald as your choice of stone for your ring. Emeralds are one of the five most sought-after gemstones. Emeralds are from the beryl group of stones. Emeralds are more valuable than diamonds and are about 20 times as rare.
To make an emerald ring by hand, Ohliguer weighs and melts pure gold before pouring it into a shape like a bar. It is worked through a jeweler's roller to make it thinner. An important process here is the annealing of the metal, which involves heating and cooling the piece with a torch. This softens the gold and enables Ohliguer to stretch it into a band or ring shape. The ring's surface is then neaten carefully with a jeweler's hammer. Finally, the rings are set with emeralds and then polished completely for a brilliant finish.
Although the emerald cut is the most prevalent for emeralds, there are other cuts that can be equally stunning. A five-carat emerald, with its vivid green hue, is sure to make a statement. The natural color of an emerald is truly vibrant, and an Ohliguer emerald engagement ring, set as a three-stone ring with diamond bands and side stones in yellow gold, is a breathtaking sight to behold. Furthermore, the oval-cut emerald, pear-shaped emerald, Colombian emerald, and eternity band encrusted with emeralds are all equally mesmerizing options.
Emeralds are the birthstone for May, so if you are looking for an engagement ring or a birthday present, an emerald ring could be perfect. An emerald promise ring can be given to mark a special occasion or simply as a commitment of love. Whatever your choice, it will surely be treasured forever.
