Catalogue Essay
One of the most precious and coveted gems from ancient times, emerald is the green to greenish-blue variety of beryl whose colour is caused by trace elements of chromium or vanadium. The crystallisation process has resulted in almost all emeralds having inclusions which are visible to the naked eye. Due to the optical characteristic of emeralds, treatments to enhance the clarity and improve the quality by oils and resins have been widely accepted. In other words, eye-clean emeralds without any improvements are very rare and thus valuable. Lot 582 is an emerald and diamond bracelet comprised of 13 untreated, lustrous emeralds of the most highly saturated and sought-after colour, weighing 19.87 carats in total. A bracelet of such well-matched emeralds of this size, number and quality is rare and exceptional.
