What is the best way to know if an emerald is real??
My father gave me a really valuable ring search with a large emerald in it, and 3 small diamonds, the patch inside the ring says 14k I know he is 14-karat gold, and he as 4k, the ring appears to have been made by hand, and I'm sure when they made the ring, it was created specifically for the gems that are currently in the 4k it.Does say it is a 4 carat emerald? I try to find what I can without taking a assessor or jeweler.THANKS!
I would check on a site that sells loose gemstones and see if there is anything in the discription
