0.61 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

If you are searching for a distinctive center stone that combines classic geometry with vivid Colombian color, this one of a kind transparent 0.61 carat asscher octagon shape emerald from The Natural Emerald Company answers that need with confidence and charm. Measuring 5.22 x 5.13 x 3.65 mm, this gem displays the crisp stepped facets of the asscher cut, offering a sophisticated play of light and depth that flatters both modern and vintage inspired settings. The gem shows a medium intense color intensity, a lively pure green that captures attention without overpowering. Its clarity grade is slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which gives the stone a natural character and internal fingerprint that certifies authenticity and origin. Origin Colombia, enhancement standard, excellent polish, all of these technical qualities assure you are getting a thoughtfully selected natural emerald, ready to become the centerpiece of an engagement ring, daily wear pendant, or a refined collector piece.

For customers whose priority is durability combined with everyday elegance, this emerald is an excellent match. Emeralds are a beryl family gemstone with a Mohs hardness typically around 7.5 to 8, which makes them suitable for most types of jewelry. What can matter most for daily wear is toughness rather than only hardness, and because natural emeralds often contain internal features, the slightly included clarity and standard enhancement are actually part of the balance we seek. The standard enhancement commonly used on natural emeralds improves the stone's appearance by stabilizing surface reaching fissures, which in practical terms reduces the likelihood of localized chipping and contributes to a more resilient finish. The excellent polish on this asscher cut further supports daily wear, because well polished facets resist surface abrasion and maintain brightness through regular handling. With routine care and sensible protective design choices, this emerald offers long term wearable beauty while retaining the authentic character that collectors and sentimental buyers prize.

Knowing that many clients want a gem they can wear every day without worry, The Natural Emerald Company recommends a few practical setting and care choices to maximize durability and minimize risk. A bezel setting or a protective low profile prong setting shelters the girdle and pavilion edges, which are the most vulnerable parts during daily activity. A halo or mounting that creates a slight lip can deflect knocks and create visual emphasis while keeping the stone secure. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and high heat treatments, and remove the piece for rigorous manual work and activities that risk hard impacts, chemicals, or abrasive surfaces. Regular gentle cleaning with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush will keep the brilliant green lively, and a professional check of the setting once a year ensures prongs remain snug and the stone stable. These sensible precautions take only minutes, and they preserve the gem for a lifetime, allowing you to enjoy the unique Colombian color and asscher geometry every day.

If your desire is a ring that feels personal, looks distinctive, and travels with you through daily life, this 0.61 carat asscher octagon shape Colombian emerald is an ideal solution. It offers a rare combination of medium intense color intensity, a charming slightly included clarity that speaks to natural origin, excellent polish that enhances sparkle, and standard enhancement that helps stabilize the stone for practical wear. At The Natural Emerald Company we select each gem with the intention of matching your needs, whether you seek a meaningful engagement ring, a statement piece that wears comfortably, or a fine addition for a collector who values natural character.
