A tragic event once happened in the middle of the sea, this was something that dramatically changed the life of the young fisherman. The boat in which Robert and his co-fishermen were sailing, was attacked by pirates. The attackers robbed everything of value from the boat, they then sold the inhabitants of the boat as slaves. Young Robert was sold to a wealthy goldsmith, he was forced to work for his master and learn the trade. 

Being separated from his beloved was something, that Robert could not bear. He kept thinking about hear and dreamed of being a free man one day. He kept busy learning the trade from his master and hoped to quieten his heavy heart. His dreams of being freed and being reunited with his beloved, gradually seemed to fade away - it was then that he decided to do something to stay motivated. He started to make a ring for the woman in his life hoping to give it to her, when he was once again a free man. 

A few years later, steps were taken to abolish slavery and Robert Joyce was soon a free man. Taking the ring that he had so so carefully made and kept safe, the young man rushed back to his village.

About The Emerald Gemstone: Scientists agree that emerald was formed and known to humans, for at least 4,000 years. Cleopatra was an avid fan of the precious green stone. Her collection included some priceless emerald pieces that were mined from a then famous island near Egypt. Emerald is a variety of beryl and has some unique features both naturally and commercially, that not many other gems can boast of. The emerald claddagh ring is a spectacular jewel, finely crafted showcasing one of the rarest green gems and amazingly gorgeous. We already told you about the amazing real life story behind the centuries old claddagh ring, understanding the gem will help you appreciate and admire the ring even more. Emerald goes through some tough genesis in nature, this during the millions of years that it takes for the gem to form in its natural environment. Violent variations in climate including changes in temperature, pressure and even physical elements in the vicinity of the formation area, leave their indelible impression on the gem. Emerald bravely carries these experiences, embodying them within itself. To the human eye, the gem exhibits inclusions and often fine internal fissures. Gem experts and knowledgeable gem lovers, fondly refer to these internal features as 'birthmarks' of emerald. Just like birthmarks in humans they, give each emerald piece a unique identity of its own - yes, no two emerald pieces can ever be identical in all respects. Gem miners and cutters have known for a few centuries that, soaking an emerald in natural oils adds to the luster of the gem -- this as the oils seep into the gem. This form of gem treatment is accepted by the most gem testing labs and gem experts alike. When the worlds largest gem testing laboratories like GIA receive an emerald (for testing) that is absolutely clean inside with no visible fissures or inclusions, they realize that it is almost (98%) sure to be a fake man made stone.
