Great choice. How accurate were Embassy Emeralds pics?

Ditto! And I'm curious to get your opinion on their colour accuracy. I'm happy that you've found THE emerald for you. :appl:

Overall I find the Embassy pictures to be pretty accurate. They look closer to what the stone looks like outside, rather than indoors where the stone is a little more muted. He takes enough pictures, including the back of the stone, to get a good idea of the type and amount of inclusions, which I really appreciate.
I have had experiences in the past of an emerald looking good in a pic, but looking more washed out and lighter in real life. this wasn't the case here. I wouldn't necessarily call them "light" colored, except in comparison to the kind of saturated stones which are usually a whole other level in price.

A fair review and definitely a positive one in favour of EE. Thanks, PG.

Do you remember the item number of your stone? I am trying to figure out the pics in Embassy's site, and I can use other stones in the same lot as yours as a reference. Thank you!
