About this 1.26ct natural emerald diamond

This 1.26ct natural emerald sits in the one-and-a-quarter to one-and-a-half carat band, graded J colour (near-colourless) and VVS1 clarity (very-very-slightly-included), with a standard cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA 1485718881. Listed at 4 retailers as of November 5, 2026, with a relatively tight 10% 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.
