ZAMBIA Emerald 5.17 Ct. Natural ROYAL GREEN Cushion RARE FIND

  
Gemstone & Variety: Natural Emerald. Treatments: Indications of minor clarity enhancement with oil. Gemologist's Comments on Treatments: As a business policy, we don't stock heated, treated, or enhanced gemstones.

This is because oil is commonly used as a lubricant for cleaning/storing rough emeralds and facilitating the cutting/polishing process. Also, due to their natural growth conditions and recovery methods, almost all emeralds contain surface-reaching features. Therefore, the oil may seep into these features even when not intended as a treatment.

For this reason, clarity enhancement - particularly with oil - is a common and widely accepted trade practice for emeralds. Indications of "minor" clarity enhancement with oil are observed in this particular emerald. Measurements (L x W x H): 11.69 x 11.55 x 5.92 mm.
