One beautiful transparent 1.35 carat green emerald, emerald cut, measures 8.03 by 5.44 by 4.22 mm, presenting a classic rectangular step cut with balanced proportions and crisp facet junctions. The gem exhibits medium color intensity, a pure green hue with even distribution across the table and pavilion, and an excellent polish that enhances its surface luster. Clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates minor internal characteristics that do not materially affect overall transparency or visual performance. The stone is standardly enhanced, consistent with common treatment practices to improve clarity and stability, and is sourced from Russia, a reference that reflects its geological origin and typical regional color profile. The Natural Emerald Company provides this specimen with full specification and visual documentation for appraisal and design planning.
On the Mohs scale of mineral hardness the emerald ranks approximately 7.5 to 8, which places it substantially harder than quartz and comparable to topaz in basic scratch resistance, while being softer than corundum and diamond. This hardness indicates good resistance to everyday scratching, however natural emeralds frequently contain internal fissures and inclusions that influence toughness and impact resistance more than hardness alone. Given the clarity grade of very slightly included and the standard enhancement, careful handling is recommended during setting and wear. Protective mountings such as a bezel or well guarded prong design will reduce exposure to knocks and edges, and routine maintenance should avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaning to preserve both the clarity enhancement and the stone integrity. The excellent polish contributes to surface durability and light return, and the 1.35 carat weight and emerald cut proportions will allow confident consideration for ring, pendant, or custom jewelry applications with appropriate protective design.
