Comment: Precision-cut by David Dawson from unoiled rough bought from H. Bosch. Double GIA- and IGI- certified, both agreeing on 'bright green', IGI adding 'Brazil' and also finding oil (see the comment in 2.10). In this case, I side with IGI and assume some oil was used on the rough before David got to it. In 2.10 this was not possible. Glowing bright green with a dash of teal, a fresh spring hue. Under the lens, but not with the unaided eye, you may explore the famous 'jardin', the emerald-garden inside the remarkably clean body; parts of which we caught in the close-ups and additional images. A sharp, young eye, will fill some of these inclusions back into the arms-length impression, but only after seeing them through the lens or our images (and yet, you should look), the casual bystander will simply be blinded by color and luster, not knowing what hit him/her, other than envy or admiration depending her/his character. Eternally pretty and valuable, in a world filled with useless throw-away gadgets. Proudly over three carats and sparkling with far more luster than is commonly expected from emerald. Above 9x8mm could fill (almost) any gent's size ring, or allow us to create the one pendant design that only you and the heir, or heiress, deserving your creation will call her family-ring, the priceless luxury of uniqueness.
