Wow! This stunning NC emerald was mined in the town of Hiddenite. It weighs 1.56 carats (9 X 6 mm) and was fashioned into a bar cut. Hiddenite emeralds are extremely rare and becoming more scarce by the day, which will continually add to the stone's value. Not to mention, emeralds of this clarity (SI1) and size with no oil or heat treatment are impossible to find! It has been professionally appraised, and the total value of the ring was $10,869.98 as of 2022. It is definitely worth more now! The band is made of 14k yellow gold and currently set at a US women's size 6. Add this treasure to your jewelry collection today!
