0.71 Ct. Emerald from Afghanistan

In the heart of Afghanistan, where rugged mountains cradle ancient secrets, a remarkable journey begins. Among the rocky terrain, veins of vibrant green emerge, hinting at treasures that have captivated humanity for centuries. Nature's artistry is at play in these highlands, where geothermal forces and mineral riches give birth to the world’s most enchanting gemstones. It is here that our tale unfolds, unveiling the birth of an emerald that is as striking in its appearance as it is steeped in heritage.

For centuries, emeralds have held an indomitable allure, weaving themselves into the tapestries of cultures and empires. They are gemstones of legend, sources of enchantment and spirituality, thought by many to grant vision, wisdom, and foresight. In antiquity, they adorned the crowns of emperors and the temples of forgotten deities. The ancient Persians embraced them as a symbol of eternal spring, while the Mughal emperors of India inscribed them with poetry and wore them for their unparalleled beauty and power.

With dimensions of precisely 6.10 x 5.06 x 3.34 mm, our emerald reflects this profound legacy. Every facet of its emerald cut shape has been meticulously crafted to capture and reflect light, creating a vivid dance of green that evokes the lush landscapes of its origin. This emerald, weighing 0.71 carats, showcases not only the skill of artisans but also the meticulous precision of nature's hand.
