Emerald necklace button 5 mm faceted - 925 silver

Emerald is showcased in this gemstone necklace as a finely faceted button chain of approx. 5 mm – unfolding its entire color palette: from deep blue-green to vibrant grass green to delicate yellow-green. The larger buttons capture the light in a particularly lively way and let the natural play of color of the emerald shine in all its glory. Characteristic natural inclusions – the so-called "jardin" (garden) – make every stone unique and attest to its authenticity. Emerald is the dark to light green variety of the mineral beryl (Be₃Al₂Si₆O₁₈) from the cyclosilicate group – belonging to the same mineral family as aquamarine (blue) and morganite (pink). The green coloring is caused by chromium and vanadium impurities. Mohs hardness: 7.5–8, hexagonal crystal system. Emerald is one of the most expensive and sought-after gemstones in the world. Locations: Colombia (Muzo, Chivor), Zambia, Brazil, Zimbabwe, Egypt.

Significance in Crystal Healing

In crystal healing, the emerald is considered, like no other stone, to stand for health, harmony, and eternal youth. The ancient Egyptians already revered it as a magical stone, and Hildegard of Bingen described its healing effects on headaches and nervous disorders. It is said to strengthen the heart, promote serenity and zest for life, and bestow harmony and inner abundance. It is associated with the heart chakra. These attributions are based on traditional lore and are not scientifically proven. They do not replace medical treatment.
