Emerald is the gemstone for the month of May. The name comes from the Greek "smaragdos" which means green stone. Emeralds are often characterised by a garden of included crystals trapped within, known as the "jardin", because under magnification you will see all sorts of lovely patterns resembling foliage in a garden. This expertly painted figurine, coupled with a high quality gemstone, make the Gemstones collection a perfect gift for anyone. According to legend, the wearing of emerald not only cured a wide range of ailments, including low I.Q. and poor eyesight, but also enabled the wearer to predict the future. Many people know which gemstone is associated with his or her month of birth. This is probably due to the folklore associated with these stones. Early civilisations as far back as 1400 BC gave mysterious and magical powers to gemstones, believing that wearing the gemstone would give them luck or protect them. The Gemstones collection is a great way to introduce someone to the finely crafted ranges of Royal Doulton figurines. Each modern young lady features an appropriate Swarovski crystal on her chest. Each of the exquisitely modelled bone china figurines is expertly hand made and meticulously hand painted, true to the finest traditions of Royal Doulton's pedigree HN series of collectable figurines. Naturally, each one comes handsomely gift boxed with a Certificate of Authenticity, making them collectable china figurines to savour.
