About this 2.96ct lab-grown emerald diamond

This 2.96ct lab-grown emerald sits in the two to three carat band, graded D colour (colourless) and VS1 clarity (very-slightly-included), with a very-good cut grade and certified by IGI LG843691518 or 843691518. Listed at 5 retailers as of October 23, 2026, with a 79% spread between the cheapest and most expensive listing. That is exactly the kind of price-discovery gap Carat Hunter was built to surface. 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.
