Emerald, Pearl & Aventurine Fringe Necklace

• 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.
• Aventurine Quartz - Aventurine quartz is a variety of quartz that contains small sparkling mineral inclusions, typically of mica or hematite. The inclusions give the stone a shimmering or glittering effect, making it a popular choice for jewellery. It is found in various colours, including green, blue, brown, and red, with green being the most common. The green colour is due to the presence of fuchsite, a type of mica.
  
  In jewellery making, aventurine quartz is often used for beads, pendants, and cabochons. It can be cut into various shapes and sizes and can be polished to a high shine. Aventurine quartz is also popular in tumbled stone form for use in necklaces, bracelets, and other jewellery.
