Mens Emerald Rings, Suitability Of Emerald Gemstone Rings For Men

Many of you might wonder why special mention of men's emerald rings is required. There does not seem to be any logical reason for an emerald gem stone ring not being suitable for men. But the truth is a little different and experts at Kaisilver wish to explain a few things related to mens emerald rings.

Durabiity: It is true that the design and construction of a good quality ring can do much to increase the durability of a jewel. An emerald gem stone ring will still need some caution when being worn, stored or cleaned. This relates to the characteristics of emeralds, we will elaborate on this in subsequent paragraphs.

Color: There are some people who feel that green gems do not look good in men's jewelry. This is a trivial matter which we need not worry about. After all it si the personal preference of the person wearing the ring. So on issues of gem color, an emerald men's ring should not be a concern related to gemstone color. You can get emeralds in pale green, medium green and every very dark and opaque greens.

Mens Habits: A detailed research conducted by Kaisilver experts came up with some very interesting findings. One of these was that, men do not take sufficient care of the jewelry that they wear. This needs to be directly related to a men's emerald gemstone ring because, emeralds by nature require a bit of caring and caution.

Inclusions and fissures: Though very few jewelers would care to inform buyers, the truth is that ALL natural emeralds will have inclusions and fissures. These natural characteristics make the gem a bit prone to chipping and cracking with physical impact. You can safely presume that the gemstone in your men's emerald ring will have these too. It is important to keep an emerald ring away from hard objects.

Oil treatment: Another thing about emeralds that might surprise you is that, all emeralds (over 95% of them) are treated with natural oils. It is almost impossible for you to get a mens gold or silver emerald ring that has not been treated with oils. Even priceless emerald jewels securely preserved in museums are periodically treated with oils to enhance the beauty of the gemstones. The oils flow into the gemstone and fill up the fissures making them less visible. Gem experts love to say that the oils 'soften' the visibility of the fissures and increase the lustre of the emerald. There is no supporting research to prove that oil treatment increases the strength of the gemstone though some gem manufacturers make that claim. The oil treatment dictates the need for some measures to take care of the gemstone. We will discuss these issues in the paragraphy related to caring for emerald gems.

Caring for emeralds: It is the natural characteristics of emeralds and the oil treatment that brings in the need for some caution. Emeralds have a hardness factor of 7.5 to 8 which should make them quite sturdy, but other factors work to pull down the durability of the stone. We already mentioned that the stone in your emerald mens ring should not strike or be struck by hard objects. This is something that needs to be taken care of even when storing the ring. Do not bundle all jewels together in a jewelry box. A box that has separate compartments for each jewel is preferable. When washing an emerald ring strong detergents should not be used, these can seep into the stone and affect the natural oils. Avoid heat sources for your emerald ring or other emerald jewels. This can cause the oils to dry up and give the gemstone a dry and drab appearance.  When washing an emerald ring, do not soak the ring in water for a long time as seepage of water into the gemstone can spoil the stone. Ultrasonic cleaners are also not recommended for cleaning emerald gem stone jewelry.
