9.38 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Emerald and Natural Diamond Accent Stones Bracelet, 18K White Gold

This bracelet from The Natural Emerald Company is a study in timeless elegance, marrying a lineage of gemstone lore with modern lapidary excellence. The piece is set entirely in 18K white gold, and it measures 7.25 inches in length, a classic scale that sits comfortably between refinement and presence. The eleven Colombian emeralds are cushion shaped, mixed brilliant cut, weighing a total of 9.38 carats, with a clarity grading of very slightly included and an intense color saturation. Cushion shaped mixed brilliant cuts offer a rare balance, they retain the antique charm of the cushion silhouette while employing mixed brilliant faceting to enhance scintillation, when compared to the traditional step cut emeralds. Classic emerald cuts emphasize color and depth, often showing fewer facets and more of the stone body, whereas the mixed brilliant approach used here maximizes fire and scintillation, producing a lively surface brilliance that complements the deep, saturated green typical of top Colombian material. The very slightly included clarity is noteworthy, because emeralds commonly present with more visible inclusions, and these stones therefore represent a higher tier of natural clarity for their species, allowing the intense color to read with both clarity and vitality.

The surrounding diamonds are executed with matching precision and pedigree, eleven larger round mixed brilliant cut natural diamonds totaling 1.87 carats, and an additional 330 round mixed brilliant cut natural diamonds totaling 3.53 carats, all graded VVS1 in clarity, and F in color. In practical terms, VVS1 clarity and F color place these diamonds among the finest natural stones commonly available, offering near invisibility of inclusions to the unaided eye, and a near colorless presence that contrasts and lifts the emeralds without competing with their hue. Compared to lower clarity or color grades, these diamonds deliver superior brilliance and a clean, icy backdrop for the green centers. The mixed brilliant cuts echo the emerald faceting, creating a cohesive interplay of light across the bracelet, while the 18K white gold setting provides a cool, classical frame. This design recalls historic court jewels where color, cut, and metal were orchestrated to convey legacy, it is a piece meant to be worn and handed down, a modern heirloom that honors the ancient story of emeralds and the craft of fine jewelry making.
