Garden of Emeralds

Emerald, the most precious of beryls, is undoubtedly an object of extraordinary admiration. An exceptional stone present across the world, its origins fascinate, its properties and its surprising inclusions, also called “jardins” (gardens). In the East as in the West, lapidaries and jewelers honor this gem thanks to well-adapted know-how and constant innovation.
