0.43 Ct. Emerald from Zambia

Emerald, recognized as the birthstone for May and symbolizing rebirth and love, has been one of the most coveted gemstones for centuries. With its rich green hue that ranges from the verdant colors of spring to the deep tones of a tropical forest, emeralds have adorned the crowns and jewelry of royals and the collections of connoisseurs alike. Their distinct color and rarity are what make them popular among gemstone enthusiasts and discerning jewelry buyers.
This exquisitely transparent 0.43-carat emerald is a true testament to the gemstone's esteemed reputation. Its size is modest, yet impactful, with precise dimensions of 6.11 x 3.92 x 2.39 mm—a sizeable choice for a variety of fine jewelry settings. The emerald cut of this gemstone is specifically designed to highlight the stone's clarity and saturation of color, creating a hall-of-mirrors effect that emphasizes its depth and brilliance. The cut is a classic and sophisticated choice, paying homage to the gemstone's rich history while ensuring a timeless appeal.
Featuring a clarity grade of very slightly included (evaluated at eye level), this emerald is among the higher quality stones available. Clarity in emeralds is exceptionally valued, as they are typically found with inclusions visible to the naked eye. Being very slightly included means that there are only minor internal features called 'jardin' which are natural for emeralds and do not significantly detract from the stone's beauty or structural integrity.
The gemstone’s vivid color intensity is a vital aspect that captivates the eye and is indicative of its Zambian origin. Zambian emeralds are known for their high-quality and slightly bluish-green in color, which is highly desired in the gem market. This particular emerald has an excellent polish, ensuring that the surface of the stone reflects light beautifully, further enhancing its allure and sparkle.
Emeralds, like this fine piece from Zambia, are used primarily in high-end jewelry. They can be the centerpiece of rings, pendants, earrings, and bracelets, and are often set in precious metals like gold or platinum to complement their luxury status. Their timeless elegance makes them an ideal heirloom to be passed down through generations.
Customers looking for a stunning and authentic gemstone will find that this emerald meets their needs for quality, exclusivity, and aesthetics. Its calibrated size fits perfectly into a range of custom and ready-made settings. For someone seeking a meaningful and luxurious piece of jewelry, whether to mark a special occasion or to add to a collection, this premium green emerald with its vivid color, emerald cut, and exceptional polish will not only meet but exceed their expectations. Moreover, its origin from Zambia adds an extra layer of value for those who appreciate gems with a known provenance.
