- Emeralds - Emeralds have been used in jewellery making for thousands of years, and are prized for their deep green colour, which is caused by the presence of chromium and vanadium in the mineral beryl. Because of their rare colour, emeralds are often more valuable than diamonds of a similar size and quality. In jewellery making, emeralds are typically cut into round or oval shapes to maximize their color and clarity. They are often set in gold or platinum and used as the centrepiece of a piece of jewellery, such as a ring or necklace. They can also be used in combination with other gems, such as diamonds, to create intricate and beautiful designs.
- Chrysoberyl - Chrysoberyl is a mineral species that includes two common varieties: ordinary chrysoberyl and cat's eye chrysoberyl (also known as cymophane). The mineral is typically yellowish-green in color, but can also be brown, gray, or nearly colorless. It is often used as a gemstone, with the cat's eye variety being particularly prized for its chatoyancy (a reflective effect that resembles the slit eye of a cat). Chrysoberyl is relatively hard and durable, making it suitable for use in jewellery.
