1.05 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

A rare and luminous treasure from Colombia arrives to elevate the most discerning collection, a beautiful transparent 1.05 carat oval green emerald that embodies the essence of refined rarity. Meticulously cut to an exacting mixed brilliant style, this gem measures 8.04 x 6.30 x 3.59 mm, a proportion that balances presence with wearable grace. The vivid color intensity is immediate and arresting, an emerald green that seems to glow from within under natural light. An excellent polish enhances each facet, producing a lively play of light and depth that speaks to both masterful cutting and the stone inherent vitality. Offered by The Natural Emerald Company, this gem is presented as a singular opportunity, a piece that will not be replicated, and a reminder that true collectors claim only what is exceptional.

This oval emerald is transparent and evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, a clarity grade that preserves transparency and brilliance while affirming its natural character. The inclusions are delicate and part of the gem story, visible under close inspection yet unobtrusive to the naked eye, ensuring an appearance that reads as serene clarity to most observers. The emerald has undergone standard enhancement, a widely accepted practice that improves visual stability and color saturation while respecting integrity, and it retains its natural origin marker from the famed Colombian deposits known for producing the most sought after greens. For bespoke commissions, this gem adapts beautifully to a variety of settings, from a refined solitaire ring to an intimate pendant, and can be paired with warm gold tones to intensify its golden green, or with cool platinum to emphasize its pure verdant glow.

On the Mohs scale of hardness this emerald sits around 7.5 to 8, a rating that conveys reliable durability for fine jewelry when set and worn with thoughtful care. To put this into context, diamond occupies the top of the scale at 10, and corundum family gems such as sapphire and ruby are a 9, while common quartz sits at 7. This means that our Colombian emerald is harder than many everyday stones yet softer than the hardest gemstone classes, which influences how it is best enjoyed. A setting that protects the girdle and edges, such as a bezel or a secure prong design with guard rails, will preserve the stone against hard knocks. Routine maintenance should avoid harsh knocks and rapid temperature changes, and cleaning is best done with a gentle soap and warm water method, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners that may stress filled zones over time. With appropriate care this emerald will retain its vivid color and polish for generations.
