VERY GOOD VIDEO - THANKS FOR THE EFFORTS!

I use an ice cube tray, place an emerald ring in each cube spot. Add warmed Johnson's baby oil to cover each ring and let set overnight. Wipe them off in the morning and put them back away. I do this 1 or 2 times a year, but if you wear them a lot, I would oil them another time through the year.

When preforming or buying a rough stone it has been oiled or not. When polishing it is not absolute that your cut will have not surfaced inclusions or fractures. Oil is often used. Grade of rough

Why emerald have gas bubbles . you must make video for this and make us understand

@ThaiNativeGems

5 жыл бұрын

Gas bubbles are natural inclusions or caused by foreign fillers (like oil, wax or resin) being filled in emeralds to hide their inclusions. Unfortunately, we currently don't have a microscope camera which is clear enough to show this. I do recommend to reading our blog post which has an image of a gas bubble trapped inside a treated emerald - buygemstone.info/2013/06/17/natural-emerald-buying-treatment-guide-how-to-buy-and-tell-the-difference-between-100-natural-no-oil-minor-moderate-and-significant-treatment-emeralds/ Best Regards, Tarun Gupta, Graduate Gemologist (GIA)

Hi Kevin, I do agree with you, however, the reason why it is normal practice in the trade to add any 'foreign' substance in emeralds is so they are look 'less' included and therefore more salable to end user. Emeralds in general are highly included gemstones. This is also reason why high quality 'no oil' emeralds are so expensive and so rare. Regards, Tarun Gupta, Graduate Gemologist (GIA)

I really dont understand oiling. Would people not buy it if it was not oiled? I greatly prefer the look of the gem natural with surface cracks and inclusions visible. Its like a finger print unique. It seems to me I would save the very high quality natural stones and oil the lesser ones.

Hi Flower, 'Same' is very subjective. Have the emeralds been certified from reliable third lab (GIA, GRS, etc.,)? Also, how is actual color, crystal clarity (transparency ranges base on clarity defect, cloudy appearance, etc.), treatment levels (which this video explains), emerald origin and cut grade. Only by taking all these factors into account we can than determine the price range. Regards, Tarun Gupta, Graduate Gemologist (GIA)

This video just talks about probability of oil (or other filler). There are emeralds which have surface openings in which neither the miner or cutter has used a filler. To know, one must use a microscope with different lighting or more sophisticated testing equipment. I have cut and supervised the cutter of thousands of of emeralds in my lapidation and on rare occasion have elected not to treat even when it was possible because of the premium which is paid for fine untreated emeralds.

@ThaiNativeGems

Hi David, thanks for your expert comment and insight. I completely agree with your comment and unfortunately I couldn't portray in this video the 'flash effect' which you should check through different lighting under the microscope. I did also generalize that if one does see some surface reaching fractures that they will be fillers as this usually the case with 99% of emeralds in the market. Of course, if you are sourcing the emeralds directly from the mine and supervising the cut process I am sure you will get some untreated no oil emeralds, which has surface reaching fractures. I really do appreciate you pointing out some of my generalize statements and clarifying it.

Please WHO can help me check mine

Why emerald should not be in oil ?

@ThaiNativeGems

Жыл бұрын

The issue is not emerald should be in oil or not. It is other more aggressive treatment people do which hurts emerald business, like wax, resign or 'color oil' (not clear cedar oil). This makes everyone not trust even regular oil emeralds. Also in terms of rarity having a 'no oil' is a prestige point and therefore commands a much higher price.

Hi Michael, completely agree with you that this video doesn't cover carat weight trade-offs. The purpose of this video was to focus on emerald treatment levels and to see how and tell the difference between each level of treatment (no oil, insignificant and minor to moderate oil stones) and how this effects the value. Now if we include, carat weight ranges, color and clarity this makes discussion a lot more complicated and this is a reason why buying color gemstones requires some skills, experience, good pair of eyes and some luck. Thanks for your comment anyways.
