1.86 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

This Colombian emerald from The Natural Emerald Company is a rare combination of size, color, and craftsmanship. At 1.86 carat and measuring 8.86 x 7.11 x 4.27 mm, this emerald cut gem offers a roomier table and strong presence that many smaller or poorly cut stones cannot match. Compared with standard market offerings, which often trade away transparency for deep tone or accept heavy enhancement to mask clarity issues, this stone stands out with transparent body color and intense green saturation. The emerald cut accentuates the gem's depth of color without muddiness, producing a refined and architectural silhouette that sits beautifully in both classic and contemporary settings. Where many emeralds display a dominantly grassy or bluish cast, this stone shows a lively, pure green that reads vivid under varied lighting, giving it an immediate visual advantage to buyers seeking a genuine Colombian look.

Quality is where this gem truly outperforms typical market alternatives. Graded very slightly included at eye level, the stone presents a visually clean face up appearance, with inclusions that do not interrupt the vibrant color or detract from light performance. Its excellent polish and the precision of the emerald cut work together to create broad, luminous facets that return light with clarity and life. From the table down through the pavilion the stone maintains consistent color zoning and transparency, so each angle reveals a saturated green that shimmers rather than deadens. Many emeralds on the market are overly oiled or heavily enhanced to create a pleasing surface at the expense of long term stability and resale value. This gem has standard enhancement, meaning it retains natural integrity while benefitting from accepted treatments that improve appearance without aggressive filling, making it a wiser choice for collectors and buyers who value authenticity and durability. The result is a stone that appears flawless to the naked eye, allowing its color and form to dominate rather than distracting inclusions, and this optical purity enhances its beauty from every vantage point.

When evaluating value and uniqueness, this emerald offers a compelling story compared with other options. Colombian origin is historically linked to the finest emeralds, and this specimen carries that pedigree in its tone, hue, and clarity profile. Its 1.86 carat weight is large enough to make a design statement yet proportioned for wearable elegance, whether set as a solitaire ring, a bespoke pendant, or a high end bespoke commission. The emerald cut provides a modern crispness that many round or step cuts cannot replicate, and because the proportions are generous at 8.86 x 7.11 x 4.27 mm, setters can achieve striking visual impact without overpowering the wearer. For buyers comparing natural stones to lab grown alternatives, this Colombian emerald offers the irreplaceable character of natural formation, the subtle inclusions that testify to its origin, and the long term desirability that comes with traceable provenance. From a value perspective it is an investment in timeless beauty, not a temporary trend piece, and The Natural Emerald Company stands behind that promise with responsible sourcing and gemological transparency.

Choosing this emerald means choosing a gem that excels in both aesthetic and intrinsic qualities, and our expertise helps you see why it is superior to many market offerings. The combination of intense, transparent green, an estate friendly 1.86 carat size, emerald cut lines that maximize light return, a very slightly included clarity grade that reads clean to the eye, and excellent polish creates a gem that looks flawless in daily wear and under close inspection. Standard enhancement preserves the stone s natural character while improving appearance in a stable manner, and the Colombian origin ensures a color profile prized by collectors and connoisseurs. At The Natural Emerald Company we emphasize stones that offer honest value and enduring beauty, and this emerald is a clear example of how superior material and careful cutting translate into an object that delights from every angle. If you want a piece that stands apart from typical market choices, this emerald delivers both visual impact and long term satisfaction.
