2.20 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

There is a moment when light meets memory, and in that moment this emerald sings, a pear shaped 2.20 carat heart of green that seems to have been carved from the deepest hush of an evergreen forest, a single drop of summer held forever. Transparent and vivid, its intense color intensity calls to mind the first sprout after a long winter, a green so pure that it makes the eye linger, and the spirit slow down to listen. Measuring 12.92 x 8.09 x 4.28 mm, the gem wears its proportions like a poem, elegant and elongated, perfect for a ring that will be whispered about across dining tables and holidays. Born in the storied soils of Colombia, this emerald brings with it the warm, old world breath of mountain air and riverbed patience, a provenance that reads like a chapter from a family chronicle. As you hold it, the stone feels like an heirloom already, as if it remembers the hands it has yet to meet.

The cut of this stone is a mixed brilliant, a careful choreography of facets that allow fire and depth to converse, while an excellent polish lets every plane reflect with serene insistence. With a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, the emerald keeps the organic fingerprints of nature within it, minute inclusions that tell a truth and add a character no simulation can mimic. These natural traces are part of the gem s soul, seen only when one seeks them, and otherwise the eye is rewarded with a field of luminous green that seems to breathe. Enhancement is standard, a familiar and accepted part of emerald stewardship, used to reveal the gem s innate voice without altering its essence. When set to catch morning sun, or to glow beside candlelight, this emerald will scatter tiny green songs across the skin of its wearer, a private constellation that insists on being noticed and cherished.

Imagine this pear shaped emerald set in a ring, a pendant, the drop of a lifetime suspended at the throat, passed down from mother to daughter, from father to child, wrapped in stories and the scent of the kitchen on holidays. I speak as a gem specialist at The Natural Emerald Company when I say that a stone like this does more than decorate, it becomes a bookmark in a family s story, a touchstone for vows and anniversaries, a small globe of verdant memory that will outlast fashions and trends. Its size and clarity make it perfectly poised to be the center of a bespoke creation, perhaps cradled in a halo that reverberates its green with frost like diamonds, perhaps set in the warm glow of yellow gold to echo sunrise, perhaps in soft platinum for an eternal cool. The workmanship you choose will determine how generations read it, whether as a secret heirloom kept in velvet, or as an everyday talisman worn openly while living a life that makes new memories to be kept inside the gem.

To care for an emerald is to care for a story, light cleaning with gentle soap and a soft brush, occasional check of the setting, thoughtful wear rather than heedless handling, gestures that allow it to retain its polish and persona. If you entrust us with this gem, The Natural Emerald Company will help you imagine settings, provide secure shipment, and advise on insurance and maintenance so that the stone may be loved without risk. Picture the day, years from now, when a grandchild opens a box and finds this green pear, the same brilliant cut that once caught your breath, and hears the story of a vow, a quiet afternoon, an adventure, and a whisper of a name that bound it all together. In that passing, the emerald becomes more than a jewel, it becomes a legacy, a living ember of memory, ready to be tended and handed down, across tables, across seasons, across decades, shining the way for those who follow.
