1.95 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

From the green heart of Colombia to the careful hands of our gem cutters, this emerald has a story that is both geological and human. Born over millions of years as mineral rich fluids threaded through ancient rock, the stone emerged under conditions that gave it a rare bluish green beauty. We at The Natural Emerald Company sourced this transparent 1.95 carat oval emerald directly from Colombian deposits known for producing stones with saturated and lively hues. The gem measures 9.53 x 7.82 x 4.99 mm and displays an intense color intensity that immediately announces its origin. Mining here is a patient practice, where cutters and miners treat each rough with respect, translating the history of the earth into a piece that feels alive in the light. The slight inclusions that appear when viewed up close are part of the gem’s character, evidence of its natural formation, and they lend it a sense of authenticity that cannot be replicated by synthetic processes.

The transformation from rough to refined jewel is where skill shapes the story, and this emerald has been cut and polished to reveal its best self. The mixed brilliant cut gives the table and crown a precision that maximizes fire and depth while allowing the pavilion facets to return rich color. At 1.95 carats the oval proportion is generous enough to command attention yet balanced for elegant settings. Evaluated at eye level the clarity grade reads very slightly included, a grade that offers the rare combination of transparency and natural character. The polish is excellent, a finish achieved through meticulous faceting and repeated inspection under multiple lighting conditions. Enhancement is standard, a common practice for emeralds that stabilizes and improves clarity while preserving natural beauty, and the result is a stone that sits vivid and clear, catching and holding the eye as it moves.

When placed into a design the emerald becomes conversation and memory, a piece that feels organic and intentional. The bluish green tone is versatile, translating beautifully across metals, from warm yellow gold that amplifies the green, to cool white metals that emphasize its crystalline sparkle. At the specified dimensions the gem offers the presence one expects of a fine 1.95 carat stone, holding its own on the hand while remaining flexible for a range of mounting styles, from a classic solitaire to a halo that frames its intensity. Our images and fittings show how it rests against skin, how light travels through the mixed brilliant facets, and how the oval silhouette creates a gentle elongation on the finger. Each facet was considered with wear in mind, ensuring the stone sits comfortably in settings that protect its girdle and pavilion while allowing the table to reveal the internal glow that makes Colombian emeralds so sought after.

Beyond aesthetics many are drawn to emeralds for their enduring symbolic qualities and purported energetic benefits, and this gem carries that lineage as well. Traditionally associated with the heart, this bluish green emerald is often described as a stone of compassion, renewal, and emotional clarity. It is said to soothe turbulent feelings and to encourage honest communication with oneself and others, supporting the restoration of balance after times of change. Practitioners and collectors alike speak of emeralds enhancing intuition and promoting mental focus, making them a favored companion for creative work and thoughtful decision making. For those who work with gem energies common rituals include gentle cleansing with running water or sunlight and setting intentions while holding the stone, practices that heighten personal connection without promising physical cures.
