3.60 Ct. Emerald from Russia

This transparent 3.60 carat emerald presents as a classic emerald cut with precise step facets, measuring 11.59 x 7.07 x 5.93 mm, a dimension that balances presence and wearability. The gem is graded as very slightly included at eye level, a clarity category that indicates minimal internal features visible without magnification, preserving strong transparency and a clean face up appearance. Color exhibits a medium intensity green, consistent across the table and pavilion, offering the familiar vividness associated with fine emeralds without tipping into overly dark tones that can diminish brilliance. The polish is excellent, producing sharp facet junctions and lively surface reflection, and there has been no enhancement applied to the stone, making this a rare example of an untreated emerald. The origin is Russia, a source known for producing emeralds with a distinctive combination of clarity and tonal balance, and the overall proportions and finish of this gem reflect careful cutting to maximize light performance while retaining weight.

For custom jewelry the dimensions and emerald cut shape make this stone exceptionally versatile and desirable, especially for commissions that emphasize linear elegance and architectural symmetry. At 11.59 x 7.07 mm the table presents a broad visual area that showcases the gem color, while the depth of 5.93 mm supports secure bezel or prong settings without excessive pavilion trimming, a benefit for designers who wish to preserve carat weight and optical character. The emerald cut lends itself to both classic and contemporary settings, pairing beautifully with tapered baguettes for a vintage inspired three stone ring, or anchoring a minimalist solitaire pendant for a modern aesthetic. Because the stone is untreated, collectors and discerning clients will appreciate its natural origin and the integrity it brings to bespoke pieces, increasing both sentimental and long term market value.
