Like all gemstones, the factors which decide the class of an emerald and its price tag are Color, Clarity, Cut and Carat weight. Its color establishes the quality of an emerald far more than anything else.
Color:
Quality emeralds are deep rich grassy green and lively in color while lesser emeralds are paler and less brilliant. There are additional elements within the color aspect which have to be given consideration like the hue of the stone together with tints other than green; the tone of the color which range from dark to light shade; and saturation meaning the purity of the color and the extent of the mixed secondary hues. Yellow and blue, the hues found next to green on the spectral color wheel, are the normal secondary hues found in emerald.
