Provides the knowledge required to buy an emerald
Published on Jan, 2020
Our guide was a geologist who provided an excellent understanding of emeralds. The Emerald Museum tour was nothing to write home about and the finally was their store. However our guide assisted us in finding a store more to our liking. I would recommend for anyone looking to buy an emerald.
