Yellow Emerald Cut diamonds are super rare- for a number of reasons.

Primary among them is the fact that most cutters don't stop at an emerald - they add the additional facet to make the stone a radiant (or even a cushion) - to increase the perceived color and therefore the GIA color grade.

But as a lover of step cuts, I was thrilled to find this one. It has a mesmerizing play of light. Tons of glitter.

The sheer physical size help here.

There's a huge booger in the middle of the diamond.
Kidding.
It's a VVS2 - super clean.

As five carat, VVS emerald cuts go, this is a super well priced stone as well.

I have some awesome setting ideas- reach out and we can shoot the breeze about them.
