Emerald Natural Diamonds

The emerald cut is a step cut: long, parallel facets that create broad flashes of light and the "hall of mirrors" effect, rather than the scattered sparkle of a brilliant. It reads as elegant and architectural.

Because its large open table shows the inside of the stone clearly, inclusions and body colour are easier to see in an emerald cut. Choosing a higher clarity grade than you would for a brilliant shape is usually worthwhile.
