Ascher cut emerald set in a .34 CTW octagon baguette diamond halo - 14k white gold
This emerald has no treatment - totally natural! The emerald was acquired directly from a mine in Lake Manyara, Tanzania. The mining takes place through cooperation with a nearby village, where the village elder has taken on the role as the mining manager and 6 of the villagers are doing the mining. The villagers get a salary regardless of production and the mine organization receives as very substantial share of the final sales price of any and all sold stones. None of the emeralds are oiled or treated in any way. They are expertly faceted under fair conditions in Sri Lanka. It is our understanding that even though small, this was one of the best emeralds to come from the mine.
