Colombian Versus Zambian
For decades, emerald lovers have debated the merits of this stone from its two leading sources. Emeralds have been known in South American ages before the Spanish conquest. Zambian gems are a more recent discovery, going back to 1940’s.
It’s commonly believed that Colombian stones are a warmer, more intense green. Meanwhile, Zambian examples are supposed to be cooler, with bluer hues present within the gem. Truth be told, gems from either location can display these desirable qualities.

I bought a Kagem Zambian Emerald Pendant in June. It was beautiful, so I tossed the return documents and I gave it to my goddaughter as a gift. She was thrilled. Was recently told by her mother that it had lost an emerald after two days wear.
Buyer beware! These items may look good, but the workmanship is questionable.
