Solitaire Emerald Ring 1.20 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers a transparent 1.20 carat round green emerald, precisely measured at 6.94 by 6.79 by 4.79 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation and color depth. The stone carries a clarity grade of slightly included when evaluated at eye level, consistent with natural emerald characteristics, and displays medium color saturation with an even, lively green tone. The pavilion and crown present an excellent polish, allowing the gem to return light cleanly while preserving the stone's natural charm. Originating from Zambia, this emerald reflects the region's reputation for producing gems with vivid hue and stable tone. The gem is secured in a refined prong setting that exposes the girdle and crown to maximize light entry and visual presence, while maintaining a secure hold appropriate for regular wear.

The mounting and band are crafted entirely in 18 karat yellow gold, executed as a slim, polished profile designed to balance the stone's presence with everyday comfort. The band is gently contoured to sit smoothly against the finger, minimizing pressure points and allowing the ring to be worn comfortably for extended periods. The low to moderate setting height and unobtrusive prong orientation reduce snagging on fabrics, and the solid gold construction offers dependable durability for daily use. At The Natural Emerald Company we specify materials and finishing to support both aesthetics and functionality, and this piece exemplifies that approach by combining a naturally vivid Zambian emerald with an ergonomically considerate gold band. For routine care, we recommend gentle cleaning with warm water, mild detergent, and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners to preserve surface polish and any inherent clarity characteristics. Regular inspection of the prongs will help ensure the setting remains secure over time.
