Here’s a detailed emerald description in a gemological style, then I can also give you a shorter, elegant version if you’d like it for a catalog or showcase.
Emerald (Variety of Beryl)
Appearance:
Emeralds are celebrated for their lush, vivid green to bluish-green color, the most prized hue among green gemstones. Their color comes primarily from trace amounts of chromium, vanadium, or both within the mineral beryl.Optical Properties:
Luster: Vitreous (glassy).
Transparency: Transparent to translucent; most contain natural inclusions.
Refractive Index: 1.565–1.602.
Birefringence: 0.005–0.009.
Composition:
Emerald is a variety of beryl, with the formula Be3Al2Si6O18. The rich green hue results from chromium and/or vanadium impurities.Hardness:
7.5–8 on the Mohs scale. Though relatively hard, emeralds are often brittle due to inclusions and fissures.Inclusions:
Almost all emeralds contain inclusions, often called the “jardin” (French for garden) because they resemble foliage or moss. These inclusions are accepted as part of the gem’s character and help distinguish natural stones from synthetics.Sources:
Famous sources include Colombia (considered the finest), Zambia, Brazil, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, and Pakistan. Colombian emeralds are prized for their rich, pure green; Zambian stones often display a cooler bluish-green tone.Value Factors:
Color: The most important factor—intense, evenly distributed medium-to-dark green is most valuable.
Clarity: Eye-clean stones are rare; inclusions are tolerated more in emerald than in most gems.
Cut: Often cut in the classic emerald cut (rectangular step-cut), which protects the stone from stress.
Carat Weight: Larger fine emeralds are extremely rare and command high prices.
In summary: Emerald is the green jewel of kings and queens, treasured for its mesmerizing color, rarity, and historic significance. Despite its natural inclusions, its beauty and symbolic associations with renewal and love make it one of the most sought-after gemstones in history.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
