0.66 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

Emeralds have long captivated the human imagination with their lush green hues and storied histories. At The Natural Emerald Company, we are proud to offer a gemstone that embodies the pinnacle of quality and rarity. This particular emerald is a testament to nature's artistry. Weighing in at 0.66 carats, the transparency of this gem is a reflection of its high caliber. Cut into an elegant asscher, or octagon shape, it measures 5.44 x 5.40 x 3.55 mm. Such precision in dimensions highlights the craftsmanship involved in unveiling its natural splendor. What makes this emerald stand out is its intense color intensity and excellent polish, features that connoisseurs of fine gemstones value highly.

The history of emeralds has been closely linked to the mountains of Colombia, the birthplace of the world's finest specimens. This emerald is no exception. Colombian emeralds are lauded for their vibrant, uneven distribution of color, which brings each stone to life. What sets this particular emerald apart is that, unlike its counterparts, it showcases an intense color saturation that amplifies its visual impact, gripping the observer's attention with its deep, verdant allure. The green color is so vivid that it casts a glow, lending an aura of sophistication and opulence, making it a token of both rarity and grandeur.

In the world of gemstones, clarity is paramount. The clarity grade of this emerald is described as very slightly included under eye-level evaluation, meaning it boasts a purity that enhances its desirability. These minor inclusions do not detract from the gem's beauty but rather affirm its natural origins. Such clarity is a rarity in emeralds from anywhere in the world, a testament to the geological marvels found in this Colombian treasure. The excellent polish bestowed upon this emerald reaffirms a level of craftsmanship that ensures light dances across its surface in a captivating manner. This outstanding polish further contributes to its exceptional luster and optical appeal, key factors that increase the stone's intrinsic value.

Furthermore, the asscher cut is renowned for its timeless elegance and ability to highlight a gemstone's best features. It is an uncommon choice for emeralds as the zero-tolerance symmetry must align perfectly with the gemstone's crystalline structure. The skilled artisans at The Natural Emerald Company have mastered this precise cut, emphasizing the stone's clarity and depth of color while offering a unique play of light unmatched by more conventional cuts. This cut serves to enhance the innate rarity of the stone, appealing to discerning buyers who seek individuality and refinement in their collections.

At The Natural Emerald Company, we understand that the purchase of such a remarkable gemstone is as much an emotional investment as it is a financial one. The rarity of this gemstone, in both size and color, stands as a beacon for buyers who value rarity and excellence. For an educated buyer, the extraordinary blend of its exceptional qualities makes it a valuable addition to any distinguished jewelry collection. Each element of its creation, from its Colombian heritage to its painstaking refashioning into a work of art, contributes towards enriching its appeal and securing its place as a treasured artifact of Earth's hidden beauty.
