Our 1.78 carat transparent green emerald exudes elegance with its radiant shape that measures 7.76 x 7.25 x 5.26 mm. The artful precision of its radiant cut enhances the stone's natural beauty, presenting a captivating play of light and color. The clarity grade of this emerald is classified as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means that the inclusions are faint and do not detract from the stone's overall brilliance. This attribute highlights its superior quality as inclusions in colored gemstones, especially emeralds, are common and often accepted. However, a very slightly included grade positions this gemstone in the upper echelon of clarity standards, appealing to discerning collectors who appreciate both beauty and value.
Emeralds, known for their vibrant green hues, are often associated with the finest, luxury gemstones, and this particular piece is no exception. It boasts an intense color intensity that enhances its appeal by providing a rich and deep greenness that implies prestige and wealth. Originating from Ethiopia, this emerald stands out due to the region's growing reputation for producing high-quality gems. Ethiopian emeralds have gained attention for their striking characteristics, offering both uniqueness and a novel provenance in contrast to traditionally sourced stones from Colombia or Zambia. This makes the emerald from The Natural Emerald Company a distinct choice for those seeking something extraordinary and rare in their collection.
On the Mohs scale, used to measure gemstone hardness, emeralds typically range between 7.5 and 8. This robust hardness ensures that they are durable enough for everyday wear, given proper care. While emeralds should always be treated gently to avoid scratching, this measure of hardness makes them suitable for a variety of jewelry applications, ranging from rings to pendants. The excellent polish of this emerald also adds to its allure, providing it with a lustrous surface that complements its natural depth in color and transparency. Through The Natural Emerald Company, buyers are guaranteed the sophistication and prestige of owning a gemstone that combines nature's exquisite artistry with human craftsmanship, ensuring everlasting appeal and value for the informed and discerning buyer.
