2.73 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

This transparent 2.73 carat cushion shaped emerald from The Natural Emerald Company measures 8.64 by 7.91 by 6.32 mm, and exhibits a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation and color depth. The vivid color intensity is immediately striking, presenting a pure, saturated green that benefits from the mixed brilliant faceting to deliver both lively sparkle and even color distribution. Clarity is graded as very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which for an educated buyer indicates minor, natural internal features that do not detract from the gem’s overall transparency or brilliance, and which serve as confirmation of natural origin. The stone displays an excellent polish that optimizes light return across the cushion outline, and the enhancement status is disclosed as standard, the customary treatment used to improve apparent clarity in emeralds, a practice we fully disclose to maintain transparency with our clients.

Sourced from Zambia, this emerald carries the hallmarks of Zambian material, including a strong, vivid hue and notable crystalline clarity that make it highly desirable both for collectors and for bespoke fine jewelry. At The Natural Emerald Company we prioritize ethical sourcing, working through a vetted supply chain with traceability back to regional mines, engaging with partners who adhere to local regulations, and supporting initiatives that promote fair labor practices and community development. For the conscious consumer this gem represents a responsibly acquired example of natural beauty, suitable for investment quality collections or signature settings where the combination of weight, cut, color, and polish will be showcased. We offer full disclosure on origin and enhancement, and our team can provide additional details about sourcing practices and recommended care, noting that emeralds benefit from gentle handling, avoidance of harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaning, and periodic professional inspection to preserve their long term appearance and value.
