0.87 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

This 0.87 carat Colombian emerald from The Natural Emerald Company is presented in a classical asscher octagon shape, with precise dimensions of 5.86 x 5.69 x 4.19 mm, and a length to width ratio of approximately 1.03, indicating a near square outline ideal for an asscher profile. The measured depth of 4.19 mm yields a depth proportion of roughly 72.6 percent, a proportion that supports the deep, vivid color intensity noted in the stone while preserving the step cut geometry that defines asscher faceting. The asscher cut here is executed with well defined, concentric step facets on the crown and pavilion, truncated corners to maintain structural integrity, and crisp facet junctions. The excellent polish enhances facet contrast, allowing the broad pavilion facets to return rich green saturation through the table, while the controlled symmetry preserves the geometric light return typical of a high quality asscher. Enhancement is standard, consistent with Colombian material, applied to stabilize surface reaching fissures and to optimize apparent clarity without compromising the gemological character.

Clarity is graded slightly included at eye level, a grade that in this specimen translates to visible but unobtrusive jardin characteristics that are common in natural emeralds, and that contribute to the gemmatic identity without significantly diminishing transparency. The combination of 0.87 carat weight, vivid color intensity, and the asscher step cut makes this stone particularly well suited for a statement piece, because the cut emphasizes color depth and plane contrast rather than optical scintillation, producing an assertive field of green that is immediately perceptible at a single glance. At 5.86 mm across, it occupies a commanding presence on the finger while remaining versatile enough for bespoke settings. For a bold solitaire, the square asscher table will present a concentrated color window, and for more dramatic presentation, a halo or mixed metal mounting will increase perceived size and enhance face up color. Sourced from Colombia and finished with meticulous cutting and excellent polish, this emerald offers collectors and connoisseurs a technically refined option for a signature ring or pendant, backed by the gemological standards of The Natural Emerald Company.
