The emerald has a rich and often royal history that spans from Cleopatra to Lady Diana. Over the years, the precious gemstone has been regarded as symbol of hope and believed to represent growth, reflection, peace and renewal. Also known as May’s birthstone, there’s no better time to indulge in the coloured gem — whether it’s via a pair of silk slippers adorned in the jewel tone or timeless jewellery made to be passed through the generations. Destined to draw envious gazes from far and wide, here are the emerald pieces to invest in now and cherish forevermore.
