Colour and Clarity: According to both AGL & SSEF reports, the emerald is of Colombian origin, with no indications of clarity enhancement.

In our opinion, the emerald is of bright, medium intense green colour, very clean to naked eyes. Upon 10x loupe, there are only two nicks on crown facets and minor fingerprints on one corner, not even noticeable. Other tiny diamonds on the shank are about F to G colours, VS clarity. Signed and numbered to the shank, with platinum mark.
