Emerald CUT:

• Almost all emeralds have significant fractures. A cutter must design the cut to reduce the effect of those fractures on the finished gemstone.
• Emeralds are more fragile than a gem like corundum; this makes them vulnerable to damage during cutting, polishing, and setting. The emerald cut shield against damages because the vulnerable corners are faceted and provide comparative protection.
• Third, because the color is so vital in establishing an emerald’s value, the cut must maximize the outcome of tone, hue, and saturation. Cutters can affect color by adjusting its proportions and the number of facets.
• Fourth, the bluish-green to yellowish-green dichroism of many emerald crystals encourages the cutter to orient the table, so it’s perpendicular to the crystal’s length. That way, the more apparent color in the cut gem is the bluish-green that so many emerald lovers prize.
