Hydrothermal Emerald
Natural emeralds and hydrothermal emeralds must be differentiated in the laboratory and cannot be distinguished by the naked eye. These hydrothermal emeralds with the same chemical composition of the material, also have natural inclusions, good colour, high clarity in large grains, above all, are inexpensive, making them an excellent alternative to natural emerald jewellery. The difference in price between hydrothermal and natural emeralds is tens to hundreds of times greater, but the beauty is not diminished in any way.

Natural Emerald VS Hydrothermal Emeralds
The distinction between natural emeralds and synthetic emeralds can be challenging for non-professionals due to their nearly identical physical and chemical properties. However, for industry experts, there are some differences.
Color:
Lab-created emeralds typically exhibit a more intense and uniform green color, while natural emeralds showcase a distinct variety, often displaying a blend of green with hints of yellow and blue.
Inclusions:
Lab-created emeralds, being synthetically produced, tend to have minimal inclusions and may contain small bubbles. Natural emeralds, on the other hand, often contain tiny flaws, cracks, and characteristic inclusions such as three-phase inclusions (gas-liquid-solid), a typical feature found in emeralds from Colombian mining areas.
Refractive Index:
Lab-created emeralds have a refractive index lower than 1.57, resulting in less vibrant reflections in sunlight, whereas natural emeralds typically have a refractive index between 1.57 and 1.59, producing brilliant reflections.
Natural emeralds are renowned for their lush and vibrant green color, rarity in nature, and soft, alluring appearance. Lab-created emeralds, however, are synthesized in laboratory conditions to simulate the natural growth environment of emeralds, sharing similar physical and chemical properties. Accurately distinguishing between natural and lab-created emeralds can be challenging, requiring microscopic examination and specialized equipment for more precise identification.
