AN EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING
AN EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING Set with a rectangular-shaped diamond weighing approximately 9.04 carats and a rectangular-shaped emerald, mounted in platinum, ring size 6 Accompanied by report no. 62270 dated 20 February 2012 from the SSEF Swiss Gemmological Institute stating that the emerald weighing approximately 7.05 carats is of Colombia origin, with no indications of clarity modification; also accompanied by an appendix stating that the natural emerald possesses extraordinary characteristics and merits special mention and appreciation. The emerald is mounted in a ring together with an impressive diamond of matching shape and size. The emerald exhibits a saturated and attractive green colour, combined with a fine purity. Microscopic examination revealed inclusions, which represent the hallmarks of Colombian emeralds from the famous mining areas as Muzo, Coscuez, and Chivor, all located in the green foothills of the Cordillera Oriental in the Colombian Andes. Its saturated green colour is due to a combination of well-balanced trace elements in the stone, typical and characteristic for the finest emeralds of Colombia. Fissures in emeralds are commonly filled with a colourless substance to enhance their clarity. The fact that this emerald shows no indications of clarity modification is a further sign of rarity. A natural emerald from Colombia of this quality is rare and exceptional Also accompanied by report no. CS44471 dated 26 January 2012 from the American Gemological Laboratories stating that based on available gemological information, it is the opinion of the Laboratory that the emerald weighing 7.05 carat is natural, the origin of this material would be classified as Classic Colombia, clarity enhancement: none Report no. 1132252879 dated 19 August 2011 from the Gemological Institute of America stating that the 9.04 carat diamond is E colour, VVS2 clarity
