Product description

This is a rare, transparent 0.74 carat emerald, a jewel that speaks to connoisseurs and collectors alike, presented by The Natural Emerald Company. The stone measures 6.78 by 4.73 by 3.23 millimeters, and it has been hand fashioned into a classic emerald cut that celebrates both geometry and depth. Its origin is Afghanistan, a source known for producing emeralds with an exceptional green that is immediate and vivid. The color intensity is intense, the polish is excellent, and the clarity has been evaluated as very slightly included at eye level. Enhancement is standard, applied with care to stabilize and subtly deepen the tone without obscuring the gem’s natural character. For anyone who seeks a piece that carries provenance, personality, and the rare harmony of fine cut with potent color, this emerald is a singular offering.

What gives this gem its unmistakable signature is the pattern of internal inclusions that read like a private language, a fingerprint forged by geological processes over millions of years. At a glance the stone projects a clear, vibrant plane of green, and as you tilt it, a delicate network of feathery growth lines and whisper thin needles appears to float within the depths. These features are not flaws to disguise, they are hallmarks of authenticity, a subtle topography that refracts and scatters light in ways that create life and movement inside the stone. The inclusions are remarkably restrained, which is why the stone receives a very slightly included grade at eye level, and yet they provide character and proof of natural origin that no laboratory creation can replicate. In certain lights you will discern tiny reflective planes that act like miniature mirrors, sending back flashes that enliven the intense green, and narrow linear features that trace the crystal’s growth history, adding complexity and soul to a surface that is otherwise impeccably polished.

The emerald cut is the ideal stage for these internal signatures, because its broad, step cut facets emphasize color and internal architecture rather than sparkle alone. The long, elegant table of this 6.78 by 4.73 millimeter gem presents a window into its interior, letting the eye read the interplay of color saturation and inclusion pattern with immediate clarity. The excellent polish ensures that light flows smoothly across and into the gem, allowing subtle brightness to rise from the pavilion and return through the crown in a way that feels refined and controlled. At 0.74 carat this emerald is perfectly scaled for a ring center that favors elegance over ostentation, or as an heirloom stud that elevates the everyday. Photographs provided show the stone on a finger for scale, and the proportions translate beautifully when set in a clean, bespoke mounting designed to highlight the stone’s intense green and its unique inner filigree.

Ownership of this emerald means having something beyond mere adornment, it means becoming part of an intimate circle who value natural rarity, measured provenance, and the craft of selection. The Natural Emerald Company sources and curates each gem with an insistence on quality and authenticity, and this Afghan emerald is presented as a limited opportunity to own a stone that is both wearable and inherently collectible. For the client who commissions a setting, we recommend a framing that uses minimal metal to preserve the stone’s optical window, or a custom design that contrasts cool platinum or soft yellow gold against the emerald’s verdant intensity. Each purchase comes with detailed notes on origin, measurements, and the clarity evaluation so you may insure and document your acquisition. For collectors and jewelry designers who seek a gem with a distinct internal signature, a sublime polish, and an intense, natural color, this emerald stands apart, offered in a manner that honors its rarity and the discerning taste of its future keeper.
