Emerald:

The green color comes from a mixture of other minerals, including chromium, vanadium, and iron, which gives it a bluish tint. In natural light, the true essence of emeralds is easier to discern, while artificial light can expose internal fractures in the stone caused by the glare. In ancient European and Indian cultures, the emerald was associated with Mercury, the messenger of the gods and the god of journeys, sleep, and dreams, and was therefore considered the stone of divine inspiration.

Diamond:

The word diamond comes from the Greek word adámas, meaning invincible and unalterable. It is a rare, naturally occurring mineral of exceptional hardness, composed of carbon. In diamonds, one carbon atom is bonded by covalent bonds to four other carbon atoms. This simple, uniform, yet strong arrangement gives it characteristics of durability and versatility.

Its composition makes it the hardest known material, chemically resistant, with high thermal conductivity.

Quality is determined by four principles: color, cut, clarity, and carat weight. This was standardized by the Gemological Institute of America and is known as the "4Cs of Diamond Quality."

The difference between a diamond and a brilliant cut lies in their definition. A diamond is the rough stone, while a brilliant cut is the name given to the cut of the stone. ... In other words: a brilliant-cut diamond.
