1.71 Ct. Emerald from Russia

If you have been searching for a truly special emerald that ends your quest for a memorable engagement ring or a rare collector piece, this transparent 1.71 carat pear shape green emerald from The Natural Emerald Company answers that need with precision, character, and integrity. The stone measures 9.98 by 6.13 by 5.40 millimeters, showing an elegant pear silhouette, and it is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut designed to maximize sparkle and optical life. Its clarity is slightly included as evaluated at eye level, which is a hallmark of natural emerald material, and its medium color intensity presents a fresh, lively green that translates beautifully in both warm and cool metals. The polish is excellent, so every facet catches light cleanly, and crucially this emerald has received no enhancement, which is exceptionally rare and desirable among connoisseurs who value untouched natural beauty. For buyers who want the assurance of authenticity, provenance, and uncompromised natural color, this emerald meets that standard while offering immediate wearable size and presence.

The origin of this gem, Russia, adds a layer of significance and value that resonates with collectors and those who appreciate gemstones with story and place. Russian emeralds are historically prized for their unique combination of clarity and distinct tonal quality, and having a documented Russian origin lends provenance that elevates the gem beyond mere aesthetics. For many clients the country of origin is not an abstract detail, it is a marker of geological narrative, mining tradition, and rarity, and Russian emeralds occupy a special niche because they are sourced from a region with a long history of producing fine green stones that are less commonly available on the market than stones from more prolific sources. The fact that this emerald is unenhanced amplifies its desirability, because many emeralds in the market have undergone treatments to improve clarity or color, and an untreated Russian emerald speaks to both natural integrity and investment quality. Collectors seeking a piece with traceable origin and minimal human alteration will find that this stone carries those attributes, and buyers looking for an engagement gem that tells a story will appreciate how provenance enriches the emotional value of the ring.

This gem is ideally suited for a centerpiece that must balance elegance, durability, and individuality, and The Natural Emerald Company stands ready to help you realize that vision with confidence, expertise, and bespoke service. As a pear shape of nearly 10 by 6 millimeters, it can be set as a graceful solitaire for a classic engagement ring, mounted with tapered shoulders for a modern bridal look, or placed within a halo to accentuate its lively medium green color while protecting the delicate point of the pear. For collectors, the combination of transparent material, slightly included clarity at eye level, excellent polish, mixed brilliant cut, and absence of enhancement offers a rare collectible that also photographs and presents beautifully in a cabinet or a jewelry presentation. If your priority is a responsible acquisition, you will find reassurance in our care for provenance documentation and ethical sourcing practices, because we curate our inventory to represent natural stones that retain their geological and historical identities. Whether your intent is to propose with something distinct, to commission an heirloom piece that will be worn daily, or to enhance a curated collection with a Russian emerald of notable purity and character, this stone resolves those needs with elegance, rarity, and a compelling backstory, and our team at The Natural Emerald Company will guide you through the setting options, certification, and aftercare so that your search truly ends with this remarkable emerald.
