2.14 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

From the heart of Colombia to your hand, this 2.14 carat oval emerald carries a story of earth and craftsmanship that The Natural Emerald Company is proud to share, a gem that began as a green secret hidden in ancient rock, lifted by skilled miners who have worked Colombian veins for generations, then brought to light and entrusted to master cutters who revealed its inner fire. Measuring 10.22 x 8.37 x 5.00 mm, the stone is fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation with the classic emerald profile, the intense color intensity and transparent body yielding a vivid green that seems to glow from within. Evaluated at eye level the clarity grade is slightly included, a characteristic that speaks to natural origin and the gemological fingerprint of emeralds, and the excellent polish and standard enhancement result in a stone that reflects light cleanly and wears with confident elegance.

When considering durability and everyday wear, emerald is a gem that rewards thoughtful design, emeralds typically register between 7.5 and 8 on the Mohs hardness scale, which makes them harder than many common gems and suitable for rings and pendants when set with protection, however they are softer than corundum gems such as sapphire and ruby and much softer than diamond, so settings that guard the girdle and bezel styles that offer rim protection are advisable for active wearers. This Colombian emerald, with its mixed brilliant facets, lively depth of color, and excellent polish, is a sublime choice for a signature ring or a refined pendant, the slight inclusions adding character rather than compromise, and the standard enhancement applied to enhance clarity in a way that is both traditional and stable. If you would like a bespoke mounting that honors the gem and secures its long term beauty, The Natural Emerald Company will gladly advise on metal choices and setting styles that showcase its intense green, and we are here to guide you through the selection and commissioning process so this emerald can begin the next chapter of its story on the person who will cherish it.
