Accent Stones Emerald Ring 4.50 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 4.50 carat pear shape green emerald measuring 16.19 x 8.85 x 5.39 mm, cut with a mixed brilliant pavilion, clarity slightly included evaluated at eye level, medium color saturation, excellent polish, enhancement standard, originating from Brazil. The mixed brilliant pavilion introduces faceting that increases internal light return and scintillation relative to a traditional step cut. Compared with a classic emerald cut which emphasizes color and clarity through large step facets and a broad table, the mixed brilliant pear produces more dynamic brilliance and dispersion. Against a round brilliant, which remains the benchmark for maximum brilliance and fire, this pear shape with mixed cutting delivers strong sparkle and a more pronounced color presence because the emeralds refractive index and absorption characteristics favor the visible hue. The pear silhouette at an approximate length to width ratio of 1.83 offers an elongated light path which enhances perceived depth and saturation, while the carefully executed polish preserves crisp facet junctions that aid in even light return. Slight inclusions typical to natural emeralds create internal character and can locally affect light transmission, however the mixed brilliant facet arrangement helps mask contrast changes and preserves lively scintillation across the surface.

The setting pairs the central emerald with pear shaped white natural diamonds totaling approximately 0.50 carats and round white natural diamonds totaling approximately 0.64 carats, all graded E color, clarity Very Slightly Included, VS1 and VS2. These high color and clarity diamonds provide a bright white contrast that increases perceived brilliance surrounding the emerald, and their brilliant cuts enhance the ensemble by reflecting white light into the emerald pavilion. Set entirely in 18K yellow gold the warm metal tone complements the emeralds medium saturation and deepens the green visually without altering the gem chemistry. Compared to halo or pavé styles that maximize apparent size through peripheral smaller stones, this design uses select pear and round diamonds to focus light and shape rather than to overwhelm the center stone. For clients assessing light performance the mixed brilliant pear delivers a balanced presentation, combining the color emphasis of step influenced cuts and the scintillation of brilliant faceting, a combination that suits the natural characteristics of Brazilian emeralds and the refined styling curated by The Natural Emerald Company.
