2.14 Ct. Emerald from Colombia - Muzo

This C.Dunaigre certified 2.14 carat asscher octagon green emerald presents a technically refined profile for collectors and designers. The stone measures 8.17 by 7.91 by 5.41 millimeters, and the asscher cut employs concentric step facets on the crown and pavilion to produce the characteristic hall of mirrors effect. Clarity is graded very slightly included at eye level, indicating minor internal features that do not materially detract from brilliancy, and the vivid color intensity confirms a strong, saturated green typical of premium Muzo material. Polish is excellent, the girdle and facet junctions show precise symmetry, and the standard enhancement noted is the accepted oil treatment used to stabilize surface-reaching fissures and optimize transparency. Pavilion depth and table proportion are balanced to favor return of color and controlled scintillation rather than extreme brilliance, making this gem particularly well suited to settings that showcase depth of hue and stepped faceting. The C.Dunaigre certificate documents origin, weight, measurements, cut style, and clarity assessment, providing provenance and technical verification for design planning.

This emerald adapts to a broad spectrum of bespoke settings with minimal modification, and The Natural Emerald Company can advise on mounting strategies that respect the stone geometry and preservation of carat weight. For protective daily wear designs a full or partial bezel that follows the octagon outline will shield the corners while emphasizing color, and four or six prong mounts with tight, well finished claws will display the table and step facets for maximum optical impact. A halo of calibrated melee diamonds or green sapphires will amplify perceived table size and color saturation, while a three stone or trilogy composition balances the asscher with tapered side stones to maintain visual symmetry. Low profile collet mounts reduce snag risk for rings intended for continuous use, and high set solitaire or pendant configurations increase light entry to accent the hall of mirrors. For cufflinks and bracelets a flush or channel installation secures the stone and minimizes exposure. Metal choice also influences perceived warmth and contrast, with platinum and 18 karat white gold offering a crisp modern presentation, and 18 karat yellow or rose gold enhancing the emeralds warm green. For preservation and serviceability designs can incorporate accessible settings to facilitate re application of standard enhancement if desired.
