Green and gold is a warm mix that suits most skin tones. Emerald is the birthstone for May.
A row of round emeralds runs down the centre of each hoop. A row of round white diamonds runs on each side of the emeralds. The hoop is yellow gold, opens on a hinge and clicks shut.
The gold is 18K yellow gold, which means 75% of it is pure gold. The rest is other metals mixed in to make it strong enough to hold the stones. There are 1.72 g of gold in this piece. The diamonds are natural, from the earth. Diamond is 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness, the hardest of all gems, according to GIA. Emerald is 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, so it is softer than diamond and needs more care (GIA).
To clean it, use warm water with a drop of mild soap and a soft brush, then dry it with a soft cloth. Do not put it in an ultrasonic or steam cleaner. GIA says these are risky for emeralds. Our jewellery care guide has more tips.
