1.36 Ct. Emerald from Russia

Owning this exceptional 1.36 carat transparent asscher octagon shaped green emerald from Russia is an invitation into a very small circle of collectors who understand the power of rarity and provenance. This stone measures 6.46 by 6.04 by 5.22 millimeters, and its proportions were chosen to celebrate both optical precision and wearable elegance. The asscher cut reveals a refined geometry, a hall of light and step facets that draw the eye inward and then let the color breathe outward. With a clarity grade of very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, the stone retains a crystalline purity that reads as near pure in most lights, while the slight internal characteristics that are present are a fingerprint of natural formation and authenticity. The color presents a light intensity, a fresh and luminous green that will pair seamlessly with white gold or platinum, or provide a delicate contrast against warmer metals. Enhancement is standard, and the excellent polish ensures each facet sings with a bright, satiny luster. At The Natural Emerald Company we source with intention, and this gem is offered to an exclusive few who seek a piece that stands apart from mass produced offerings.

This emerald is more than a gem, it is a study in artisanal cutting and careful selection. The asscher cut requires exacting symmetry and a masterful hand to balance step facets so that they produce both depth and a crisp optical return. In this stone the cut concentrates the green into a luminous window, providing flashes of lighter and deeper tones as the piece moves and catches light. The dimensions of six point four six by six point zero four by five point two two millimeters are an ideal footprint for a statement ring, a refined pendant, or bespoke cufflinks, granting a presence on the hand or at the throat while remaining gracious and wearable. The excellent polish elevates the stone, maximizing brilliance and touch, and the light color intensity makes it remarkably versatile, flattering a wide range of skin tones and settings. The visible characteristics under a careful eye speak not of flaw but of natural history, inclusions that confirm the gem was born of geological processes, rather than synthesized or overly treated. For collectors and connoisseurs who value integrity in origin and execution, a Russian emerald of this transparency and cut is a rare and prized acquisition.
