About this 1.22ct natural emerald diamond

This 1.22ct natural emerald sits in the classic one-carat band, graded L colour (faint-tinted) and VS2 clarity (very-slightly-included), with a standard cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA 3435181578. Listed at 8 retailers as of November 1, 2026, with prices from $4,169 to $6,480, a $2,311 spread on the same certified stone. Cape Diamonds lists it at $6,480. Cut grade matters more than carat or clarity for visible brilliance. If you can shift budget toward an Excellent or Ideal cut, do it before chasing higher colour or clarity.
