As I mentioned in my previous post, I am looking for a fine emerald- but here is my question: Has anyone seen an emerald cut in a cushion cut? Any opinions? I realize that emerald cut is tradional, but .... Thanks. P.S. Does anyone have experience with Emerald Elegance/Esmerelda?

Fine emeralds do not come by truckload - as long as the cut s not overly shalow and windowed, the shape is entirely your choice. I am not sure I understand what the issue is: are you considering a cushion cut emerald versus a step cut? The sahep is not very common, but then... nothing is very common about fine emerald. ![]() Ana "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." [Souren Melikian] |

Oops, don't know what happened to above post. I've never seen a cushion cut emerald but found a pic for you. It's a Georgian piece. Can't get it to post so you'll have to look here http://www.liveauctioneers.com/auctions/ebay/115454.html

Very nice. I love the pavilion faceting, which increases the brilliance of the stone. Nice hue of color too. It looks Colombian. Is it? Rich, Independent GG Appraiser |

Excellent Maya. Don't give up on emerald because of the treatment issues. It's not as much of an issue with the finer stones, and an expert independent appraiser can keep you from making a wrong choice. Emeralds are the "queen of gems", prized since the time of Cleopatra. They are not likely to disappear quietly into the night. Rich, Independent GG Appraiser |
