Emeralds

Emerald Necklaces in Solid 14k Gold
 
Green, in its strongest form. LANA Emerald Necklaces feature responsibly sourced, AAA-grade natural emeralds from Zambia, cut in India and set in solid 14k gold. From emerald pendant necklaces to versatile removable designs, each piece brings saturated color and modern structure to the neckline.
 
Zambian emeralds are known for their deep green color, often with cooler or slightly blue-green undertones. LANA selects AAA-grade natural emeralds for their color, clarity, cut, and overall appearance. The stones are then cut in India, where expert lapidary craftsmanship shapes each emerald to reveal its individual depth and brilliance.
 
Because emeralds form naturally, no two stones are exactly alike. Subtle inclusions and variations in color are characteristic of the gemstone and may be visible within the stone. These natural details give each emerald its own identity rather than indicating a flaw.
 
Explore classic emerald pendant necklaces alongside removable emerald pendants that can be added to compatible chains. A removable pendant gives you more control over the final look, allowing the emerald to move between different necklace lengths and chain styles when the construction permits. Always review the individual product details to confirm whether a pendant is removable and which chains are compatible.
 
Select designs pair natural emeralds with natural white diamonds. The diamonds bring a sharper line of brilliance around the emerald’s rich, saturated color. Other necklaces keep the setting restrained, allowing the green stone and polished gold to remain the focus.
 
Yellow gold creates warmth around an emerald and emphasizes its depth. White gold offers cooler contrast, while rose gold brings an unexpected softness to the green. Available gold colors, emerald shapes, pendant sizes, and necklace lengths vary by design.
 
An emerald necklace can stand alone as the defining color in a look. For more dimension, pair it with a gold chain necklace at a different length. A diamond necklace adds brightness without introducing another color, while other gemstones create a bolder contrast. Explore LANA Layered Necklaces for coordinated multi-strand designs that can complement a shorter or longer emerald pendant.
 
Emeralds are traditionally associated with renewal, growth, love, and prosperity. They are also the birthstone for May, making an emerald necklace a meaningful choice for birthdays, anniversaries, milestones, and celebrations.

Q1. Are LANA emerald necklaces made with real emeralds?
 
Yes. LANA emerald necklaces feature responsibly sourced, AAA-grade natural emeralds from Zambia. The stones are cut in India and set in solid 14k gold. Select designs also feature natural white diamonds.
 
Q2. What does AAA-grade mean for an emerald?
 
AAA is a quality designation used for emeralds selected for strong color, clarity, cut, and overall appearance. Because emeralds are natural gemstones, each stone may contain individual inclusions and subtle variations.
 
Q3. Where do LANA emeralds come from?
 
LANA’s natural emeralds are responsibly sourced from Zambia and cut in India before being set into solid 14k gold designs.
 
Q4. Why do natural emeralds have inclusions?
 
Inclusions form as an emerald develops within the earth. They are a common characteristic of natural emeralds and can create individual patterns within each stone. Their appearance varies from one emerald to another.
 
Q5. What is a removable emerald pendant?
 
A removable pendant can be taken off its original chain and added to another compatible chain. This allows you to change the length, link style, or overall proportions of the necklace. Compatibility varies, so check the specific product details before moving the pendant.
 
Q6. Can I layer an emerald necklace?
 
Yes. Pair it with a polished gold chain, diamond necklace, choker, or lariat at a clearly different length. Leaving space between each necklace allows the emerald pendant to remain visible.
 
Q7. What does an emerald necklace symbolize?
 
Emeralds are traditionally associated with renewal, growth, love, and prosperity. As the May birthstone, an emerald necklace can also hold significance for a birthday or personal milestone.
 
Q8. How should I care for an emerald necklace?
 
Emeralds require thoughtful care. Avoid perfume, lotions, harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, steam, and unnecessary moisture. Gently wipe the piece with a clean, soft cloth and store it separately from harder gemstones. Consult a jewelry professional when deeper cleaning or inspection is needed.
 
“Bold scale. Delicate construction. Sexy movement. Lightweight gold.” LANA made something that sounds contradictory work: jewelry that looks big and impactful but feels barely there. “Bold enough to be noticed. Light enough to live in.” — Lana Bramlette, CEO, founder, and designer
