Emerald is the vibrant green variety of the beryl family.

Nineteen48's emeralds are responsibly sourced from a small mining collective in Bahia, Brazil. These stones are sourced through a trusted partner based in the region. Only a small selection of emeralds is currently available.

As is common within the emerald trade, these stones are likely to have undergone a minor oil treatment.
