0.77 Ct. Emerald from Brazil

From the moment the rich green hues of our exquisite 0.77 carat oval-shaped emerald emerged from Brazil’s storied mines, it embarked on a meticulous journey to become the breathtaking gemstone now presented by The Natural Emerald Company. Brazil, renowned for its abundant gemstone deposits and expert miners, offers unique conditions ideal for the formation of high-quality emeralds. This particular stone was carefully extracted from the depths of the earth, where it had rested for millennia, awaiting its opportunity to captivate the discerning eye of gemstone aficionados.

At our partner mining facility, sustainability and precision go hand in hand. Advanced extraction techniques ensure that the delicate structure of each emerald remains intact, safeguarding its natural beauty. Following its extraction, the emerald was subjected to rigorous sorting and grading processes. Trained gemologists evaluated the raw stone for qualities such as clarity and color, presenting us with a creation that held promise within its slightly included (evaluated at eye level) clarity grade and medium color intensity. These characteristics revealed the emerald’s potential to be cut and polished into the splendid gemstone that gemstone connoisseurs seek.

The next phase of the emerald's journey brought it to the skilled hands of our master craftsmen, who are indispensable in enhancing the stone’s allure. Antonio, a seasoned lapidary, began his meticulous work with the emerald, appreciating its size with dimensions of 6.87 x 5.08 x 3.72 mm and understanding how best to unleash its inherent charm. Opting for a mixed brilliant cut, Antonio applied his expertise to ensure the stone emitted maximum brilliance while maintaining the classic beauty of an oval shape. This careful selection process optimizes the refraction of light, illuminating the gem’s vivid inner world for all who gaze upon it.

Attention to detail is paramount as the emerald undergoes the final polishing phase. Each facet is precisely cut, reflecting our commitment to excellence and artistry at The Natural Emerald Company. The accomplished polishing process smooths every edge and surface, culminating in an excellent polish that accentuates the stone's vibrant color and natural luminescence. It is here that the emerald truly achieves its transformative appeal, merging its Brazilian origins with refined craftsmanship, becoming a masterpiece ready to be appreciated by a knowledgeable buyer.

Upon completion, the emerald finds its new setting in our collection, embodying a tale that stretches from ancient geological forces to contemporary fine craftsmanship.
