There are emeralds, and then there are Ural emeralds. Discovered in 1831 near Yekaterinburg, these stones passed through the Russian Imperial court and into the great houses of Europe… and they were never plentiful. Since 2022, Russian-origin material has become genuinely difficult to bring to market, so the stones already cut and certified in the West are a closing window rather than a renewable supply. What makes this one truly unusual is its colour: a top-quality Colombian colour. This rich, vivid green is most prized in the finest Colombian emeralds and unusual in Ural material.
And it carries the detail that separates the serious from the decorative - the stone is minor oil only. Almost every emerald is treated, most of them heavily, with resins and fillers that hide fractures and fake clarity. A stone that needs only minor oiling is telling you the truth about itself: it's great material. Stones like this don't come along often, and when they're gone they're gone.
Details:
• 4.20ct Ural Emerald (minor oil - GIA certified)
• 46 pavé-set accent diamonds total 0.63cts
• 18 carat polished yellow gold
• 3mm ball chain (18ct gold) at 17.5”
