Emerald Got A Paint Job? 🎨 #gems #gemstone #emerald

What have you got for me today? It's a strand of emeralds from India. It was sent to me by a customer and I just thought they were cool. They're not, of course, the clearest of emeralds or anything, but it's a beautiful strand. So, 143 g and multiply that by five to get the carats. It's like 715 carats around. — It's a lot of emeralds. — Let me check it out under the microscope. Let's see if they're treated in any way, which does happen sometimes. I mean, we have some good news and we have some bad news. They do look like emeralds, — Yes. but they are dyed. Instead of just clear oil, like the standard oil treatments or resin, Yeah. — they put a green oil and you can see that in the fractures. So, it does improve the color. The beads, stuff like this, maybe like a few bucks a carat, which does add up when it's, you know, 700 carats. I mean, what would you estimate that I should sell that for? — Even five bucks a carat, it's like 3,500 bucks. I think you'll be able to sell this. I'm going to take it to the Vegas show and throw it out there. Do it. Everyone, if you're going to Vegas, visit Pam. Thank you.
