An emerald’s inclusions are considered part of the stone’s character, and can be used to confirm it is a natural gemstone. Commonly referred to as jardin - the French word for garden - an emerald’s inclusions bear a strong resemblance to foliage. Inclusions in emeralds are sometimes referred to as the stone’s birthmarks.
An emerald should display a fine, dark green hue with a high transparency. Although inclusions are tolerated, they should not affect a stone’s transparency. Too many inclusions will give an emerald a cloudy, opaque appearance, while too few will render the stone transparent.
