It is worth knowing that you can harm an emerald without even using it. Do not store emerald jewelry in the same box with other jewelry, as hard stones can damage soft ones. It is especially important to keep the emerald separate from topaz, alexandrite, sapphires, diamonds and rubies, as these are harder crystals. In turn, for example, a pomegranate is softer, so in this case the emerald can harm the grenade. In terms of hardness, aquamarine is identical to it, it is also better to store them separately from each other.
