1.93 Ct. Emerald from Russia

This GIA certified, 1.93 carat emerald cut emerald presents a textbook example of step cutting, with dimensions 9.85 x 6.10 x 4.38 mm, an elongated rectangular table, and well proportioned truncated corners. The faceting follows classic emerald cut geometry, with broad, parallel step facets on the crown and pavilion that create controlled light return and emphasize internal color saturation rather than scintillation. At face up observation the clarity is described as very slightly included, with inclusions that are minute and localized, allowing the stone to read as transparent and clean to the eye. The color registers as intense, a vivid medium to deep green that is evenly distributed across the girdle, and the excellent polish results in crisp facet junctions and mirror like facet surfaces that maximize color depth. The gem is natural and unenhanced, exhibiting no clarity or color treatments, and the GIA report confirms origin as Russia, providing authoritative documentation of its natural provenance and measured properties.

For the conscious collector, this emerald is a compelling combination of technical excellence and traceable ethics, offered by The Natural Emerald Company.
