1.60 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

When you are searching for a truly special gemstone that ends the quest for the perfect engagement ring or the ideal addition to a discerning collection, this Colombian emerald from The Natural Emerald Company answers that need with authority and elegance. We present a transparent 1.60 carat emerald with an emerald cut, and dimensions of 8.78 x 5.96 x 4.49 mm, a size that balances presence and wearability. Its vivid color intensity is the immediate attraction, a pure and lively green that reads both rich and fresh under a variety of lights, while the slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level gives it authentic character without compromising its bright, open face. The excellent polish ensures light plays across the table and step facets with a silky flow, and the standard enhancement applied is a normal, stable treatment used to improve stability and appearance, accepted throughout the trade. For anyone who values provenance, the Colombian origin is meaningful, as Colombia is renowned for producing emeralds with fine color saturation and classic beauty, qualities that make this stone more than a jewel, it makes it a legacy.

Think about versatility, because so many clients want a gemstone that travels seamlessly between casual days and formal evenings, and this emerald does exactly that. Worn solo in a bezel or set as a solitaire ring, it reads modern, clean and confident for everyday elegance, pairing effortlessly with denim and tailored blazers alike. Move the same stone into a halo or three stone ring surrounded by delicate diamonds, and it becomes a red carpet centerpiece, the vivid green taking on a luminous drama that complements evening gowns and formal suits. It also performs beautifully as a pendant, where its emerald cut silhouette creates a refined linear elegance that flatters neckline lines, and as custom cufflinks or small statement earrings it brings a bright, cultured note to mens and womens accessories. The proportions at 8.78 x 5.96 x 4.49 mm make it comfortable for daily wear, while its strong color and polish ensure visibility and presence whether you are crossing the boardroom or attending a gala.

Beyond immediate beauty, this emerald presents lasting appeal as an investment in style and rarity, a consideration many of our clients bring to the buying experience. Colombian emeralds with vivid color and transparent appearance remain highly sought after, and the slightly included clarity reflects natural formation, certifying that this gem comes from the earth rather than the lab, a point collectors value deeply. The emerald cut here is both practical and chic, designed to protect delicate corners while maximizing color depth and showing off the stone in a way that traditional cuts sometimes obscure. Because the treatment is standard, we can advise on long term care that preserves both the color and structural integrity, and we can offer options for secure settings that protect the pavilion and girdle during everyday use. For those who view a gemstone purchase as legacy planning, this emerald sits confidently as a piece to pass down, its combination of provenance, hue, and craftsmanship creating a story worth wearing and cherishing.

At The Natural Emerald Company we focus on matching gemstones with the needs and aspirations of our clients, and this 1.60 carat Colombian emerald is a prime example of a stone that completes many different quests. If you seek a meaningful engagement center, we can recommend settings that enhance the vivid color and minimize the visibility of any inclusions when viewed at a glance, creating a ring that reads as luminous and refined. If you are a collector, we can provide documentation and high resolution imagery, and discuss how this stone fits into a broader collection strategy. We welcome custom commissions, and our gemologists are available to discuss metal pairings, prong and bezel choices, and design options that emphasize either classic or contemporary sensibilities. Caring for this emerald is straightforward, we recommend occasional professional cleaning and secure mounting for daily wear, and we provide guidance on insurance and appraisal.
