This is a very nice HYDROTHERMAL emerald...Round shape...5mm...Colombian green color.Quality C ( SI++)

 Our gems have same chemical and gemological properties as their natural counterparts. The only difference is that natural stones are found by men while ours are made by men.We have 3 qualities: A,B,C.:A is IF,B is slithly included and C is little more included.These qualities make the HYDROTHERMAL EMERALD the same as the natural one.

Hydrothermal Process and How it is done
(Production of Emeralds and other colored Beryl, Rubies, Sapphires and other colored and white corundum)

Hydrothermal method is based on transformation of melted crashed emeralds and deposit of consequent solution around the beryl seed in a hydrothermal environment. The crashed low grade emeralds, known as nutrient, are melted along with color inducing chemicals, such as Vanadium and Chromium, that are ones of the nature‚s coloring agents in emeralds, and deposited onto a natural beryl seed. The seed, being a larger and more solid element in the process, attracts smaller particles of the same origin and the growth process begins, depositing layer upon layer on itself. This is the reason for undulated growth lines in hydrothermally grown gems. The process takes around four weeks. If the process is slowed down, the “ layers” are deposited at a slower rate, resulting in growth lines being less defined and more difficult to detect. The process starts by gradually heating the autoclave. Subsequent rise in temperature leads to rise in pressure, as a result of liquid expansion inside the inner vessel. Once the temperature rises to about 600 C and pressure is around 800 PSI, the process reaches an ultimate equilibrium and a melt process begins. Smaller particles are attracted by the larger element, the seed, hence starting the growth process.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.

Audit

The Synthetic Gemstone Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Gemstone Sheriff who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
