Emeralds are treasured for their rich history and intense green hues, and this particular emerald, sourced from Zambia, stands as a sterling example of nature’s brilliance.

The beauty of an emerald extends beyond color, and this gemstone’s clarity grade of slightly included (evaluated at eye level) adds character and uniqueness. While inclusions are naturally occurring and expected in emeralds, they often resemble moss and are colloquially referred to as "jardin," adding to the gem's natural allure. This characteristic distinguishes genuine emeralds from synthetic counterparts, thereby enhancing their authenticity and value to knowledgeable collectors and buyers who appreciate the earth's marvelous imperfections in splendid forms.

Each facet has been meticulously shaped to maximize the gemstone’s natural brilliance and reflective qualities, ensuring that light interacts perfectly with every angle. The emerald cut is particularly suitable for stones with rich color saturation, emphasizing clarity and hue continuously, and making it an appealing choice for those with sophisticated taste.
