4.65 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Emerald Pair from Zambia

These two pear shaped Zambian emeralds, weighing 2.33 carats and 2.32 carats respectively, present a rare combination of size, color intensity, and craftsmanship, offered by The Natural Emerald Company. Each gem measures 13.78 by 7.15 by 3.98 millimeters and 13.63 by 7.01 by 4.34 millimeters, and both are fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut with an excellent polish. The mixed brilliant approach couples brilliant facets on the pavilion with more open facets on the crown, optimizing light return while preserving the rich green body color that Zambian material is prized for. The clarity grade is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, indicating minor internal features that do not detract from transparency or the overall visual impact. Enhancement is standard, a market accepted treatment that stabilizes and improves appearance without concealing the stone origin or natural character.

From a gemological perspective the reflective qualities of these two stones are complementary and make them exceptional as a matched pair. The slightly different depth proportions create a subtle interplay between face up brilliance and depth of color, one stone offering slightly more scintillation along the pear tip while the other returns broader flashes of light across the pavilion facets. The intense color intensity in each emerald benefits from the precise facet alignment of the mixed brilliant cut, causing light to refract and disperse within the stone in ways that emphasize both saturation and lively sparkle. Excellent polish enhances facet crispness and yields sharper reflections, allowing the green to appear pure and vivid under varied lighting conditions, from daylight to warm indoor illumination.

For an educated buyer these emeralds combine provenance, technical merit, and aesthetic harmony, making them valuable beyond their weight alone. Zambian origin is associated with a stable chromium and iron chemistry that produces reliably intense greens, and the standard enhancement used is consistent with industry practice for natural material while maintaining transparency in trade. As a matched pear pair they are ideal for high quality earrings or a pendant set, where their complementary reflective behavior will create dynamic movement and balanced color across both stones. The Natural Emerald Company stands behind these gems as examples of careful selection and cutting, and they represent a sound choice for collectors and connoisseurs seeking natural, well finished Zambian emeralds.
