Three Stone Emerald Ring 1.96 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring from The Natural Emerald Company centers on a transparent 1.96 carat cushion shape Colombian emerald that measures 8.07 by 8.07 by 5.03 millimeters, and it has a mixed brilliant cut designed to maximize light return and scintillation. Unlike traditional step cut emeralds which emphasize depth of color but can appear more subdued in sparkle, the mixed brilliant cut combines the broad, open table of a cushion with a brilliant facet arrangement below the girdle, creating lively internal reflections and pronounced surface flashes. The cutter has balanced facet size and angles to channel light into the pavilion and return it through the crown, so each movement produces fire and a rich play of green tones. The vivid color saturation of this emerald is preserved because the cut deepens the gem where needed to showcase its natural hue, while the excellent polish allows those facets to act like tiny mirrors rather than diffuse light, giving a brightness that rivals many other emeralds on the market.

Clarity is evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, and because the mixed brilliant facet pattern disperses light so effectively, the inclusions remain unobtrusive to normal viewing, which translates into a cleaner, more luminous appearance than many similarly graded stones. Standard enhancement has been applied in the usual manner for Colombian emeralds, transparent in our documentation, so buyers understand the treatment and value they receive. The setting further elevates the central gem through two natural half moon white diamonds flanking the shoulders, weighing approximately 0.30 carats total, with clarity grades of Very Slightly Included, and color grade E, and a complement of white round natural diamonds weighing approximately 0.30 carats total, with clarity grades in the Very Slightly Included range and color grades of F and G. These carefully selected side stones serve a dual purpose, they reflect and amplify the emeralds light back into its facets, and they create a crisp white contrast that sharpens the perception of green saturation, a result much more effective than using lower color or clarity side stones which can mute the center gem.

The entire composition is forged in platinum 950, a metal choice that outperforms many comparable rings set in white gold or lower grade alloys, because platinum provides a neutral, non reactive backdrop that does not alter the color of the emerald, and because its density and resilience hold prongs and pavé settings with long term stability, preserving the precise geometry that maximizes light performance. Compared to other offerings in the marketplace, this ring presents a rare balance of a nearly two carat cushion emerald with vivid Colombian color, a mixed brilliant cut that extracts exceptional brilliance, and high quality diamond accents that interact optically with the center stone rather than competing with it. At The Natural Emerald Company we emphasize honest grading, meticulous cutting and secure, elegant settings, which means customers receive a gem that performs beautifully in real world wear, showing lively flashes and deep verdant tones that stand out in daylight and under evening lighting. For buyers comparing options, this ring represents a superior choice when the priority is a bright, lively emerald presence combined with refined, sparkling diamond accents, all set in enduring platinum craftsmanship.
