Accent Stones Emerald Ring 5.35 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a superb 5.35 carat, emerald cut green emerald from Zambia, measuring 12.14 by 8.74 by 6.53 millimeters, with vivid color saturation and an eye level clarity of slightly included. The value of this stone to an educated buyer begins with its faceting precision, which is the defining characteristic of a high quality emerald cut. The step cut geometry consists of broad, parallel crown and pavilion facets that are executed with exact angles and consistent widths, producing clean, even planes that showcase the gemstone’s color depth rather than diffuse sparkle. The excellent polish and crisp facet junctions minimize light leakage and surface graining, allowing the viewer to appreciate the transparent body color, internal character, and the signature broad flashes of tone that a well cut emerald exhibits. Precise symmetry of the table and step facets also controls the way light returns through the stone, creating balanced color distribution across the table and corners, while the measured depth of 6.53 millimeters maintains proportional pavilion angles for optimal saturation and presence on the finger.

Complementing the center emerald are white lab grown diamonds in marquise and pear shapes, with the marquise group totaling approximately 0.66 carats and the pear group totaling approximately 0.60 carats, each graded Very Slightly Included in clarity at VS1 and VS2, and color graded F. These side stones are cut and matched to deliver crisp outlines and high contrast, their brilliant light return augmenting the emerald’s green while preserving visual harmony. The ring is hand set in 18K yellow gold, a choice that enhances the warmth of the setting and frames the vivid green with classic elegance. Attention to the mounting details, including secure prong work and an open under gallery, protects the emerald while allowing light access to the pavilion facets, which is critical to preserving the color intensity and transparency. At The Natural Emerald Company we prioritize gemological accuracy, meticulous faceting, and expert setting, so this piece appeals to discerning purchasers who value natural origin, precise cutting, and a refined balance between color saturation and clarity, resulting in a ring that reads as both technically excellent and timelessly beautiful.
