It's THAT one again...sigh!

Do you mind showing us this beauty next to your recently acquired brilliant cut(?) zircons? I've not had the chance to see them together. Thanks.

I just put that one in the bank, so I can’t wear them together right now for a pic. Even though this rectangle is my best paraiba, I did wear the one with the zircons you mentioned, to a gem show recently, and all the dealers commented on it. Thanks for the kind words.

Fuzzy shot, but I love how it conveys the emerald color and sheen. 748CCF6C-3B22-4D8B-BA7A-8AF73ED8E0EA.jpeg

Out of curiosity, how would you describe that emerald using the old school GIA Gemset?

vsbG 5/6

Very slightly bluish green with medium dark tone and vivid saturation. It’s a gorgeous color. Emeralds typically do not photograph well.

Likewise, I have this other one that is more of a vsbG 4/5,

Thanks!
I’ve noticed Mizo emerald George constantly videos his in motion. I wonder if that is the trick!? Uploading my photos here basically sucks the life out of it…

Maybe it is for him, but I can almost guarantee that his stones are far more beautiful in real life than any photograph or video can convey.

Hello Neptune, where did you source your emerald from? Is there a supplier/vendor you trust for emeralds? I love your emerald? Is it Colombian? Is it delicate? Are you worried about chipping? Thank you!

I got it on eBay but the seller is no longer active. It's Colombian per AGL report. I do worry but can't stop myself from wearing it 3-4 times a week. Just have to be mindful of it while the ring is on. Thank you and I love it too.

Emerald is just...so effortless.
