0.95 Ct. Emerald from Brazil

The story of this emerald begins deep within the layered soils of Brazil, where ancient geological forces concentrated chromium and vanadium into crystalline pockets over millions of years, and where miners with generations of knowledge gently removed the surrounding matrix to reveal a jewel hidden in green. At The Natural Emerald Company we celebrate that lineage, and this particular stone carries the quiet signature of its birthplace. It is a transparent, emerald cut shape green emerald weighing 0.95 carat, with exact dimensions of 6.93 x 5.07 x 3.69 mm. The cutters who handled it understood both the stone and the story, choosing an emerald cut to honor the gem’s natural color rather than to disguise it. The result is a piece with medium intense color intensity that speaks of Brazil’s lush heartlands, and with a clarity grade of slightly included evaluated at eye level, inclusions that read like a map of the stone’s formation and add character rather than detract from its elegance. Enhancement is standard, applied with care, and polish is excellent, leaving a smooth, reflective surface that completes the transformation from rough to refined beauty.

When light meets this emerald it tells a subtle, evolving tale, and the emerald cut emphasizes broad planes of color and depth over overt sparkle, creating a sophisticated presence on the hand. In bright natural daylight the medium intense green saturates evenly across the table and step facets, revealing the true depth of color that made the cutters favor an emerald cut, and the stone shows a velvety, garden green that is alive yet restrained. Under warmer incandescent or candlelight the green takes on a slightly richer, greener warmth, the hue deepening and the internal features becoming softer to the eye, turning the gem into an intimate glow that flatters warm skin tones. Under cool LED or fluorescent lighting the stone’s edges and step facets pick up crisp reflections, and the excellent polish produces mirror like flashes along the facet junctions, while the overall color may read a touch cooler yet remain strikingly vibrant. In mixed and changing light the slightly included evaluated at eye level clarity gives the emerald a living depth, as tiny natural inclusions catch and diffuse light to create subtle internal patterns, producing a dynamic, three dimensional quality rather than a static flatness. Direct sunlight enhances contrast and can reveal a faint play between lighter and darker zones within the gem, while softer, diffused light emphasizes an even, saturated green that feels consistent and calming. Standard enhancement smooths and stabilizes the appearance of those internal features, improving transparency and allowing light to travel through the stone with greater grace, so that the emerald responds beautifully across different settings and occasions.

Choosing this emerald from The Natural Emerald Company is choosing a piece that carries place, process, and personality, a gem ready to be set in jewelry where its story can be worn and shared. The emerald cut, with its long, elegant facets, suits both a classic solitaire setting where the gem becomes the voice of the design, and a refined three stone or halo composition that can play with light while preserving the central stone’s rich green heart. Care is straightforward, respecting its standard enhancement with gentle cleaning in warm soapy water and avoiding harsh ultrasonic treatments, and with mindful wear this emerald will retain its poise for a lifetime of moments. If you seek a gem that connects you to Brazil’s geology and to the hands that shaped it, one that shows character through slightly included evaluated at eye level clarity and sings in different lights with a medium intense color intensity and excellent polish, this 0.95 carat emerald at 6.93 x 5.07 x 3.69 mm is a rare sort of companion.
