Frequently asked questions
-
Is this a real emerald?
Yes — lab-created emerald is chemically and optically identical to mined emerald. The difference is origin: grown in a controlled environment rather than mined, which delivers more consistent color and greater clarity at this stone size.
-
What does the east-west setting mean?
It's a design choice that places the stone horizontally across the necklace rather than upright. Visually, it's contemporary and distinctive. It's also often associated with forward momentum — a stone set the direction of travel rather than pointing skyward.
-
How long until it ships?
Each piece is made for you. Please allow 10 business days unless your item is already in stock.
-
Is it returnable?
Non-custom orders are returnable within 10 days of delivery. Customized pieces are final sale.
More Details
Emerald has been worn for meaning for thousands of years.
This necklace gives it a silhouette for right now.
The East West Emerald-Cut Emerald Necklace sets a 7x5mm lab-created emerald horizontally — the east-west orientation that defines EG Jewelry's signature aesthetic — on a fine 18" chain in recycled 14K gold or sterling silver. The cut reveals the stone's depth in the way step-cut facets always do: not scattered sparkle, but a clear, luminous window into something vivid and green. The horizontal placement makes it unmistakably contemporary.
May's birthstone. Handmade in the USA. Arrives gift-ready.

The Full Story
Emerald was sacred in ancient Egypt, associated with Isis and the fertility of the Nile. In Sanskrit texts, it was called "marakata" — the stone that fulfills. In the Renaissance, it was ground up and used as medicine. For millennia, before we had language for what we now call the heart chakra, people were wearing emerald over their hearts.
This necklace earns that history. The 7x5mm lab-created emerald sits in an east-west orientation — stone placed horizontally rather than upright — a detail that shifts the entire visual language of the piece. Where an upright pendant says "classic," this one says something more personal. The forward motion of the east-west setting has come to mean exactly that: momentum, resilience, becoming.
Lab-created emerald was chosen for this piece because it delivers the most vivid, consistent color at the 7x5mm size. Natural emeralds at this scale often have inclusions that affect their transparency; lab-created stones allow for the depth of color that makes an emerald worth wearing.
Handcrafted in the USA in your choice of 14K yellow, white, or rose gold, or sterling silver. Made to order.
