All emeralds are beryl, but not all beryl is emerald; only the richly green, gem-quality variety earns the emerald name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I display or store a raw emerald matrix specimen?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatrix specimens are best displayed on a flat mineral stand or in a shallow tray away from direct sunlight, which can fade certain minerals over time. Store in a stable, low-humidity environment and handle by the matrix base rather than the crystals to protect the points.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folkmarketgems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53018929856801,"sku":"EMER-311","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/4665\/0401\/files\/original-emeral-crystal.webp?v=1783773614","url":"https:\/\/www.folkmarketgems.com\/products\/swat-emerald-on-matrix-pakistan-mineral-specimen","provider":"Folkmarketgems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
