Emerald is a bright green precious gemstone, a variety of beryl prized for its vivid color.

The word extends to the color itself—a rich, saturated green: emerald waters, emerald fields.

Ireland is called the Emerald Isle for its lush green landscape.

As an adjective, emerald describes things of this distinctive green: Her emerald eyes caught the light.
