I'll take the last one on the left please. Lol, they are beautiful. As far as how much they are worth, it depends what treatments they have had.
All of these emeralds are not emeralds, I can see from the picture these are all dyed and heated, most likely not even beryl but quartz. you find these all over eBay for very cheap prices.
I know very little about emeralds, I don't have any in my collection. Can you please tell me how you can determine they are dyed and heated quartz by pictures? Thanks!
If you look closely at the stones you can see visible dark green veins(dye) inside cracks, emeralds never look like this although they do have inclusions, cracks, fissures, they don't have darker green veins like these. also these are most likely quartz because when heated quartz developed these same cracks and allows for easy dye impregnation. this quartz is also marketed as crackle quartz.
Interesting. It’s sad that this happens though.All of these emeralds are not emeralds, I can see from the picture these are all dyed and heated, most likely not even beryl but quartz. you find these all over eBay for very cheap prices.
