3.16 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

At The Natural Emerald Company, we take pride in offering gemstones of unparalleled quality, each meticulously chosen for its distinctive attributes and exceptional craftsmanship. Our featured gemstone, a stunning 3.16-carat emerald cut green emerald, embodies the splendor that enthusiasts seek in a fine jewel. Measuring 9.62 x 7.67 x 6.06 mm, this emerald showcases the timeless elegance of the emerald cut, a choice revered since antiquity for drawing out the deepest greens and balancing the stone's natural allure.

The clarity grade of this emerald is slightly included, a testament to its authenticity and natural origin. These inclusions, barely visible at eye level, mark it as a genuine creation of the earth, distinguishing it from synthetic counterparts. Unlike the often-enhanced stones seen today, our emerald remains true to its natural form, bringing forth a richness reminiscent of the legendary Mogul emeralds, which were celebrated not only for their size and beauty but also their historical significance and natural wonders.

A key feature of this gem is its medium intense color intensity, capturing a perfect balance between vibrancy and saturation. Its color evokes the famed "Emerald of Colombia," renowned for its vivid hue and enchanting presence. Our emerald's color intensity ensures a brilliant display, whether set in fine jewelry or displayed as an individual piece. The hue is neither too light to diminish its presence nor too dark to obscure its intricate features, becoming a classic example of what makes emeralds such coveted treasures throughout history.

The excellent polish achieved on this gemstone enhances its brilliant natural color, ensuring that each facet reflects light with unmatched clarity. This craftsmanship pays homage to the intricate cutting techniques employed by historic lapidaries who perfected their art over centuries. The Zambian origin of our emerald is significant, as Zambia has become synonymous with producing some of the world's finest green emeralds, rivaling even those from Colombia and India. This provenance guarantees a turquoise-leaning emerald with a distinct freshness and allure.

Our commitment to quality at The Natural Emerald Company is reflected in this gemstone's unrivaled characteristics. By comparing it to historical jewels such as the Crown of the Andes, which includes Colombia's choicest emeralds, we see that ours presents a unique value and beauty in its own right. This impeccable emerald offers an opportunity for collectors and connoisseurs alike to own a piece as rare and exquisite as the remarkable gems that have adorned historical crowns and scepters, bridging ancient grandeur with modern elegance.
