Factors that determine an emerald price:
Mainly the 4 C(s) determine the emerald price per carat whereas some other factors like treatments, inclusions etc are also there to be considered.
- Colour: Emerald shows a very unique green colour. The colour is transparent yet intense. The most desirable colour is light green and transparent. When it’s related to astrology, light-coloured and the most transparent emerald stone is required to be worn. If it’s ats about jewellery purposes, the bright-coloured low-quality stone can be used to make them. Low-quality emeralds don’t have desired transparency.
- Cut: A good cut is an essential parameter as it defines how the emerald looks. The skill of a gem cutter defines its clarity and transparency. It also defines the carat weight of the emerald. It’s always important to obtain the highest possible carat weight from an uncut crystal. Only a skilled gem cutter can achieve the desired clarity and carat from a virgin rough emerald. An inexperienced gem cutter produces low-quality emerald from a high-quality uncut gem.
- Clarity: The emerald price per carat depends on its clarity and transparency. Be aware of the fake dealers who make people fooled with processed emeralds that are prepared by oil treatments. They reduce inclusion from a low-quality emerald to make them look like an expensive one.
- Carat: the weight of the original gem matters in determining the emerald cost. Usually, the larger the size of the uncut rough gem is, the more costly it is.
