Mine to Maison

Muzo Emerald Colombia is unique in the emerald business in that we have complete control from mine to market. This controlled trail ensures that both the stones themselves and the methods by which they have been processed are of the highest quality.

MINING IN MUZO

The Muzo mines in Colombia produce the most desirable emeralds in the world, against which all other emeralds are judged. To have a guarantee that a stone is from a particular mine is unique in the precious stones industry.

TREATMENTS

Our quality policy ensures that only non-permanent cedar oil is used to treat the stones, when necessary. This dispels concerns both with regards to the disclosure of treatments as well as to potentially detrimental fillers.

CERTIFICATION

We are the only gem producer in the world equipped to issue the iso 9000 certificate of origin and traceability in-house. This 'passport' for the stone comes complete with photographs. We use integrated IT systems in the mines to track the date, place and time of extraction and the shape and weight of each crystal.
The certificate also provides details of the rough and the final carved state of the emerald and indicates whether it has been treated with natural cedar oil.
The Muzo certificate is supported by certification from GemTech, SSEF, GRS, AGL, Gübelin, and other international laboratories.
