Do your emeralds come with a lab report?

Not by default. Any stone can be sent for independent testing on request, and the report reaches you before you pay.

What does an emerald lab report include?

It identifies the stone, says whether it is natural or synthetic, and lists any treatment the lab can detect, with weight and measurements.

Lab-Certified Emerald (Zamurd)

Zamurd (Emerald) with a Lab Report زمرد

In short: Almost every emerald has been clarity-enhanced, so a lab report on Zamurd mostly tells you how much filler is present and what kind, besides confirming the stone is natural. Reports usually grade the enhancement as minor, moderate or significant. Send us the link to any emerald on WhatsApp and you will see the report before you pay.

Almost all emeralds are clarity-enhanced, so a lab report on Zamurd is mostly about how much filler is in the stone and what it is, as well as confirming that the emerald is natural.

What a lab looks for in emerald

Clarity enhancement: oil or resin sitting in fissures that reach the surface, usually graded on the report as minor, moderate or significant.
Synthetics: hydrothermal and flux-grown emeralds have growth patterns and inclusions that natural stones never show.
Look-alikes: green glass, green beryl with a different cause of colour, and doublets built with a green layer.
Dye: tinted oil used to make pale material look deeper.

Some labs also give an opinion on where an emerald came from.

Asking for a report

Choose a stone from our emerald collection and message us its link on WhatsApp. We will explain the testing steps for that stone, and you see the report before you pay. The same goes for peridot, jade and green agate. More on lab-certified gemstones.
