1.47 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

One beautiful transparent 1.47 carat emerald cut green emerald, measuring 7.94 x 6.13 x 4.45 mm, presents a compelling balance of color, clarity, and cut that will appeal to educated buyers. The emerald cut, with its broad table and step facets, accentuates the stone s medium intense green, allowing depth of hue to read quickly to the eye while the excellent polish produces crisp facet junctions and a lively surface reflection. Clarity is graded slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which is consistent with natural emerald material and often described as part of the stones garden of internal characteristics. These slightly included features do not detract from the gem s appeal, they confirm its natural origin and contribute to the way light interacts with the interior. The gem has undergone standard enhancement, a common and accepted treatment for emeralds that improves clarity and stability without fundamentally altering the color or identity of the stone. This piece originates from Zambia, a source known for producing vibrant, medium to deep green emeralds with strong crystalline structure, and the combination of origin, cut, and polish positions this gem as a confidently wearable and collectible item.

As a generational heirloom this emerald has many strengths that will allow it to be treasured and passed down. Its near one and a half carat weight combined with the classic emerald cut offers timeless design flexibility, making it ideal for a protective setting such as a bezel or a halo that both showcases the stone and reduces exposure to knocks, thereby preserving the excellent polish and protecting the slightly included interior. Proper care will enhance longevity, including avoidance of ultrasonic cleaning and high heat, periodic inspection for any need of reapplication of approved treatments, and storage separate from harder gemstones. Provenance from Zambia along with purchase documentation from The Natural Emerald Company enhances its story and marketability across generations, offering tangible proof of origin and treatment. For collectors and discerning buyers looking for a natural, well finished emerald that carries both aesthetic appeal and documented provenance, this gem represents an investment in beauty and heritage, a piece designed to become a family treasure with the right setting, care, and custodianship.
