2.76 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

Imagine holding a moment of pure green light in your hand, a transparent Zambian emerald that seems to breathe with life, a stone that promises to mark an occasion with beauty that endures. This is a 2.76 carat emerald cut gem with clean proportions at 9.83 x 8.42 x 5.07 mm, a medium intense green that catches the eye and warms the heart, an excellent polish that lets each facet sing when it meets the light, and a clarity described as slightly included at eye level that tells a story of natural formation and authenticity. Enhancement is standard, a familiar note among fine emeralds, and its origin is Zambia, a source renowned for vivid greens and an alluring depth of tone. At The Natural Emerald Company we treasure pieces like this because they carry both the character of the earth and the promise of becoming a treasured heirloom.

Picture this emerald set as a single statement solitaire that draws every gaze, mounted high on prongs that allow light to flood the pavilion and reveal the full intensity of its color, or imagine it nestled in a diamond halo that magnifies its vibrancy and adds a halo of celebration to every movement. For those who want daily luxury with a sense of security consider a sleek bezel setting that wraps the gem in a protective embrace while highlighting its classic emerald cut. A three stone ring with tapered baguette side stones offers a balance of symmetry and drama, while pavé shoulders add a whisper of sparkle that elevates the design without stealing the emeralds spotlight. Choose platinum or white gold to emphasize cool contrast, or warm yellow and rose gold to intensify the stone beloved green, and know that each metal choice will communicate a different memory with equal sincerity.

Beyond rings this emerald can be the heart of a pendant that rests near the pulse to symbolize enduring love, or the centerpiece of custom earrings that frame the face with refined color and motion. Consider a low profile bezel pendant for everyday elegance or a vintage inspired cluster for evenings that call for elegance and flair. For earrings imagine drop designs with diamond complements that swing and flash with every laugh, or study a single emerald set into cufflinks for a subtle statement of style that follows from office to celebration. Designers often use east west orientations to give a modern twist, or trap and baguette accents to build architectural lines around the rectangular geometry of the emerald cut. Even a bespoke brooch or a glamorous cocktail ring will turn this stone into a conversation piece that carries personal meaning and creates new memories.

At The Natural Emerald Company we love helping clients translate a stone like this into something personal and unforgettable, and we guide each step of the custom process with care and expertise. We will discuss setting options that protect the gem while showcasing its medium intense color, recommend accent stones that bring out its best facets, and suggest metal choices and profile heights that fit the lifestyle of the wearer. Our design consultations include sketches and mockups so you can see the way light will play across the table and shoulders, and we will advise on settings that preserve the beauty of the slightly included clarity while maximizing brilliance. Commissioning this emerald is more than buying a gemstone, it is beginning a story that will be worn and remembered, a gift that will mark milestones with joy and emotion. Allow us to help you craft that moment, and to turn this Zambian treasure into a piece that will be loved for generations.
