1.12 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

Introducing an exquisite masterpiece from The Natural Emerald Company, a transparent 1.12 carat emerald in an elegant emerald cut shape. Measuring 6.97 x 5.14 x 4.05 mm, this gemstone exemplifies the pinnacle of sophisticated design and meticulous craftsmanship. From the rich mines of Zambia, renowned for producing some of the world's most celebrated emeralds, this stone resonates with a depth of color that perfectly captures the essence of its origin. The intense color intensity and slightly included clarity grade, evaluated at eye level, attest to its authenticity and allure.

The emerald cut, characterized by its step cuts and symmetry, enhances the natural brilliance and depth of the emerald. This design elevates the aesthetic appeal of the stone, revealing an enchanting play of light and dark planes. The facets have been crafted with precision to emphasize the remarkable vividness of the stone's green hue. The excellent polish further underscores the gem's capacity to capture and reflect light, enhancing its vibrant presence. This emerald's craftsmanship reveals an understanding of how to accentuate the stone's natural beauty while maintaining its integrity.

One of the remarkable attributes of this Zambian emerald is its ability to harmonize with a myriad of skin tones when set in jewelry. The intensified green hue of the stone serves as an elegant complement to a wide spectrum of complexions. For those with fair skin, the emerald can provide a vivid contrast that highlights the gemstone's deep color. The clear, cool tone of the emerald enhances the creamy alabaster and peach undertones, creating an arresting visual appeal. The vibrant green of the emerald thus becomes a central feature, instantly drawing attention.

For individuals with medium or olive skin tones, the emerald offers a seamless integration into their natural undertones. The intense green pairs beautifully with the warm golden or slightly tanned sheen typical of these complexions. Whether it's set in an intricate necklace, a pair of spectacular earrings, or an elegant ring, the emerald's lush green stands out, harmonizing naturally with the skin. This versatility allows the emerald to function as both a statement piece and a subtle enhancer of natural beauty, modulating its intensity based on surrounding features.

Those with darker skin tones will find that this emerald provides a dramatic contrast that amplifies both the stone's richness and their own inherent beauty. The intense green serves as a striking highlight against the deep, warm colors of the skin. The beauty of the emerald in such settings lies in its dual function as both a beacon of attention and a complementation of the innate regality often associated with darker complexions. The finely executed emerald cut ensures that the stone's dynamism remains the focal point, regardless of the jewelry piece it adorns.

At The Natural Emerald Company, we view each gemstone as a singular marvel shaped by nature and refined by human ingenuity. This particular emerald stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of classic design merged with the rich legacy of Zambian origins. Its ability to complement various skin tones makes it a versatile addition to any jewelry collection. As with all our offerings, this emerald embodies our commitment to superior quality and unparalleled beauty, promising to delight knowledgeable collectors and new enthusiasts alike.
