Looking at the pictures of this Natural Emerald, it looks like it's filled with a lot of carp. That is true, but let me tell you, from a foot away, what you see is luxuriously green.

The stone even has enough transparency to throw back some sparkle. It's also quite sizable for its weight.

No one will guess it's under a carat.

The platinum ring is flawlessly done.

The natural diamonds sparkle like the dickens - and really set off the green gem.

There is a lot of finger presence - the ring measures about 14x12mm. The shank measures 1.8mm at the palm.
