About this 1.68ct lab-grown emerald diamond

This 1.68ct lab-grown emerald sits in the one-and-a-half to two carat band, graded E colour (colourless) and VVS1 clarity (very-very-slightly-included), with a very-good cut grade stated by the retailer rather than the lab and certified by GIA 2528479631. Listed at 4 retailers as of October 28, 2026, with prices from £1,329 to £1,862, a £533 spread on the same certified stone. Zales lists it at £1,862. 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.
