0.28ct Australian Emerald & Dia. Huggie Drop Earrings 9ct YG

From Cleopatra to conquistadors, the lust for its rare, beautiful greens has made Emeralds one of the world’s most valuable gemstones. An antipodean twist on Beryl’s most prized variety, Australian Emerald hails from the Curlew Emerald Mine (Est 1976), a small deposit at a remote location in East Pilbara’s Shaw River District. In 2007 a small mine-to-market collective secured the exclusive mining rights to the Curlew Emerald Mine and have been actively working the deposit since 2011. A truly ‘green’ gem, Australian Emerald is ethically and environmentally mined with exceptional value afforded by vertical integration. Emeralds from the Curlew Mine are incredibly scarce, and not readily available in the jewellery marketplace.
