3.00 Carat Emerald Cut Diamond, CRY-K, VS-1, HRD Certified

This is a natural emerald cut diamond of 3.00 carat, colour Crystal K, clarity VS-1, with an HRD certificate. It comes from Royal Coster Diamonds in Amsterdam, the oldest still operating diamond polishing house in the world, founded in 1840.

The cut. The emerald cut is a rectangular step cut with cropped corners. Its long, parallel facets work like a hall of mirrors: instead of sparkle you see broad flashes of light and a clear view into the stone. Because the cut hides very little, clarity matters more here than in a brilliant cut.

Colour. Crystal K has a faint warm tint that is visible to the eye. It combines well with yellow and rose gold, where the warmth of the metal and the stone match.

Clarity. VS-1 stands for Very Slightly Included. The inclusions are small enough that they can only be found under 10x magnification. To the naked eye the stone is clean.

Certificate. The diamond was graded by HRD, an independent laboratory. The certificate confirms that the diamond is natural and records its weight, colour, clarity and cut.

Setting. We can set this diamond in a ring, earrings or a pendant in 18K white, yellow or rose gold. Our diamond specialists advise you in our boutique in Amsterdam or online.

Please note. The image shows a rendering of this diamond shape, not a photograph of the stone itself, so colour, clarity and proportions of the actual diamond may differ from what you see here. The specifications and the certificate are leading: they describe this exact stone. Our diamond specialists will gladly send you photos or a video of the diamond, or show it to you in our boutique in Amsterdam.
