0.33 Ct. Emerald from Afghanistan

At The Natural Emerald Company we present a singular treasure, a beautiful transparent green emerald weighing 0.33 carat, fashioned in an elegant emerald cut that reveals its refined geometry and lively table. This exceptional gem measures 6.97 by 3.12 by 2.04 mm, and it offers a medium color intensity that vibrates with classic Afghan character. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, giving the stone a natural and authentic appearance without compromising its eye appeal. An excellent polish enhances the stone's brilliance and facet light return, while standard enhancement has been applied to honor time tested practices for improving clarity and beauty. Sourced from Afghanistan, this emerald is a rare specimen, ideal for the collector or connoisseur who seeks a discreetly bold centerpiece that feels purposefully exclusive. Only a limited number of cuts with this balance of transparency, color, and size become available, making ownership a statement of membership in an elite circle of aficionados who appreciate genuine, naturally derived emeralds.

Beyond its aesthetic grace, this emerald is remarkably suited to daily wear when set with intention and cared for properly. Emeralds are a variety of beryl with a Mohs hardness that resists everyday scratching, and this particular stone, with very slight inclusions and an excellent polish, demonstrates stability and resilience in practical jewelry applications. For optimal longevity and confidence in daily use, we recommend protective settings such as a low bezel or a secure prong design that shields the corners of the emerald cut from direct impact, especially in rings. Routine gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush will maintain its luster, and periodic professional checks at The Natural Emerald Company will ensure the setting remains secure and the enhancement remains well preserved. With mindful wear and a thoughtfully designed mount, this emerald becomes an heirloom ready for everyday elegance, an intimate luxury that marks its owner as someone who cherishes rarity and authenticity. Owning this piece means joining a select group who value provenance, craftsmanship, and the quiet exclusivity that only a natural Afghan emerald can deliver.
