The story: Emerald, a bright green gemstone, gets its name from the Greek word “smaragdus,” meaning green. Emeralds are often characterized by natural inclusions called “garden”, which give them a unique and lively appearance. This fascinating gem was particularly prized by Cleopatra, the legendary queen of ancient Egypt, who considered it her favorite stone and adorned her royal jewelry with it. Cleopatra also owned emerald mines near the Red Sea, which contributed to the fame of this gemstone in ancient times, making it a symbol of power and timeless beauty.
