Emereald weight: Estimated Weight: 0.90ct (by formula, not a guarantee) Due to the delicate nature of Emerald, it has been common industry practice for hundreds of years to treat emeralds by sealing them in either an oil or natural/artificial resin. Unless explicity stated to be otherwise, we have to assume that this Emerald has undergone one of the above mentioned methods of treatment. In order to precisely determine which process it has had, whether classic oiling or modern resin/Opticon impregnantion, would require testing by a gemological laboratory, at the buyer's expense, for a final determination.
