Someone once described the emerald, “Even the most unenlightened wild man, when he falls down in the thick moist forest and meets with the emerald, he will still be deeply feel the beauty and rarity of the fresh and charming color.” The history of the emerald is actually a mysterious net weaved by legend and superstition. In the year of 1600, after the Mosso city, located 200 kilometers to the Columbia capital Bogot, suffered from a heavy flood, the fresh green emerald came out from the black and dirty mud, shining in the sun. The Cadmus selected the best crystals and made them into a delicate necklace. They dedicated it to the local princess Farah and the hill was also names after Farah. At present, the largest emerald crystal was the one found in South Africa in 1956, weighing 24,000 carats (equal to 4.8 kg). The most famous emerald origins in the world
are the Luigi Musso and Chivor of Columbia. The most famous emerald in the world is the Devonshire emerald, which is a beautiful and green uncut emerald crystal, weighing 1383.95 carats. In 1891, the Brazil emperor, Church Piluo De I, gave it as a present to British Dukes of Devonshire VI, from when came its name. It is preserved in the British Natural History Museum.
