2.24 Ct. Emerald from Russia

A pear shape carries with it a long and noble lineage, a silhouette that has graced crowns, signet rings, and intimate heirlooms for centuries, and this beautiful transparent 2.24 carat pear shape green emerald speaks directly to that tradition. Measuring 11.10 by 7.11 by 5.14 millimeters, this gem is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut that produces scintillating life while preserving the depth of its vivid green color intensity. The stone has been graded as included evaluated at eye level, a characteristic shared by many historic emeralds that were formed deep within the earth and have since carried their internal stories to the surface. With an excellent polish and standard enhancement, this emerald shows the kind of surface finish and color saturation that commands attention, yet it also retains the marks of natural formation that collectors and connoisseurs cherish. Originating in Russia, this gem evokes the old world refinement of European courts and the storied gemstone traditions of the continent, bringing a sense of provenance and classical prestige to any design. For those who value legacy over fashion, the subtle inclusions and the vivid, timeless green make this stone more than an ornament, they make it a narrative piece, one that will sit comfortably in family histories and pass confidently from generation to generation.

What makes this pear shaped emerald especially appealing to designers and bespoke clients is its adaptability across a wide variety of jewelry settings, all of which can be tailored to emphasize either its heritage character or its modern sparkle. As a solitaire ring it can be set in a classic prong mount that lifts the stone for maximum table view, or it can be embraced by a V prong and three prong configuration that protects the pointed end while preserving the pear form. A bezel setting provides full protection and a smooth, wearable profile for daily wear, ideal for those seeking a durable family heirloom. A halo of fine white diamonds will accentuate the vivid color and visually increase the apparent size, while tapered baguettes or old mine cut diamonds on the shoulders will lend a refined, period correct feeling for a Victorian or Art Deco inspired engagement ring. As a pendant the elongated pear silhouette makes a graceful drop that plays beautifully with light in both formal and casual contexts, and as an earring a matched pair could be designed to mirror classical tapestry and courtly elegance, or a single asymmetric stud could become a modern signature piece. For men s jewelry the stone offers an expressive center for signet rings and cufflinks when framed with geometric milgrain or bold rubies for contrast. Every setting choice can be complemented by choices of metal, including warm yellow gold that recalls historic royal mounts, rose gold for a romantic twist, or platinum and white gold for a contemporary, high contrast presentation.
