The science of a created gem
Created by science
Identical in beauty
Tairus Created Emeralds and Created Alexandrite are conceptually, chemically and visually comparable to their natural counterparts. The hydrothermal process recreates the conditions and stages through which natural emeralds form, producing gemstones with traceable origins and clearly disclosed materials.
