This is a beautiful gemstone. It came in a lot of over a dozen pieces of rough that I bought privately from my principle African deal. At the time it seemed to be a continuance of steady production from Namibia, but as it turned out, the material became much less available to both him and myself.
This longer ratio emerald cut has steep ends because its ends are almost completely closed. Its medium dark tone and longer ratio work together to still keep the stone flashy. And the flash is an excellent well saturated blue, like the best Namibia can produce. It appears to be eye clean and of fine. crystal. It has also crossed the line I have drawn in the sand, when it comes to weight. Any gemstone that weighs more than 5 carats is a significant gemstone in the collect. Now I can dip down because of color etc., but with this stone I do not have to,
This significant emerald cut is from Namibia. It has almost closed ends and they are cut steeply. The highly saturate blue color comes in great broad flashes of color. It appears to be eye clean and weighs 5.14 carats.
since it weighs 5.14 very blue carats.
