2.26 Ct. Emerald from Colombia

There is a timeless quality to emeralds that connects us to centuries of admiration and reverence, and this pear shaped green emerald embodies that legacy with graceful precision. We present a transparent 2.26 carat gem, with dimensions of 11.00 x 7.38 x 5.34 mm, originating from the storied mines of Colombia, a region long celebrated for producing some of the world’s finest emeralds. The cutting style is faceted, executed as a mixed brilliant cut, and the stone displays a clarity grade of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a mark of exceptional transparency for a natural emerald. Its intense color intensity and excellent polish combine to create a jewel that feels both ancient and immediate, a piece that would sit comfortably in a family heirloom setting or as the center of a modern, restrained design. At The Natural Emerald Company we honor the old traditions of gem selection, and we present this stone with the respect its heritage deserves, enhanced by standard treatment to reveal its fullest beauty.

Beyond provenance and grade, this emerald is a study in geometric faceting, a deliberate marriage of mathematics and artistry that allows maximum light play. The mixed brilliant cut brings together pavilion facets cut for depth, and crown facets that scatter light into lively flashes, turning each movement into a subtle performance. The pear silhouette lends a classical symmetry that elongates the wearers hand or neckline, while the precise facet junctions channel light inward, then return it as vivid green fire and soft watery glints. The result is an emerald that breathes color, with internal reflections that shift between intense verdant pulses and cool, clear highlights, depending on the viewer’s angle. For the collector who values continuity of tradition, and for the connoisseur who seeks technical excellence in cutting, this emerald bridges both worlds with poise. Consider this gem as an enduring center for a bespoke ring, a pendant that catches light like a living relic, or as a singular investment that can be passed down with stories attached. The Natural Emerald Company is proud to offer this Colombian pear shaped emerald, a jewel that honors history and craftsmanship, and that promises to remain as compelling in a century as it is today.
