About this 1.18ct natural emerald diamond

This 1.18ct natural emerald sits in the classic one-carat band, graded E colour (colourless) and VS1 clarity (very-slightly-included), with a very-good cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA. Listed at 2 retailers as of October 28, 2026, with a relatively tight 6% spread, which is unusual at this carat range and suggests competitive pricing across the listings. 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.
