can a 6×6 emerald cut gemstone be used on a 6×6 cushion cut semi-mount?”
Emerald is the gemstone for Budha/Mercury. Photos of the Jyotish Quality Emeralds we have for sale. Color: Slightly bluish or yellowish green. Deeper green is more powerful, but do not sacrifice clarity for color. Clarity: Emeralds are the most heavily flawed Jyotish gemstone. Emeralds are designated “type three” in clarity, the only Jyotish gemstone in this class. Chromium, the mineral that makes Emeralds green also makes them flawed. Therefore, it is very, very difficult to find nearly eye-flawless Emeralds, but these are the best for Jyotish. The rule is clarity first, then as much color as your budget will allow. Emeralds with top clarity and light color are far better than those with more inclusions and darker color. Clarity first and foremost! Buy the clearest Emeralds possible. Called ‘crystal’ in the trade, super clean Emeralds from Colombia and Brazil are acceptable, as are some Zambian Emeralds, if not too dark in the crystal. Shape: Emerald cut, oval, cushion, round. Size: 2
