These rough emeralds show beautiful natural green colour and are suitable for faceting into fine gemstones. Ideal for gem cutters, jewellers, and collectors looking for authentic Pakistan emerald material.
What gemstones are rough for faceting?
- Emerald rough can be used for faceting when it is facet grade quality.
- The stones must be natural and untreated for better cutting value.
- Sizes like 1 carat up to 7 carats are suitable for cutting into finished gemstones.
- Good rich green colour makes emerald rough more desirable for faceting.
How to grade rough emeralds?
Clarity: Look for natural inclusions. Fewer visible inclusions = higher facet-grade value.
Size & Weight: Larger pieces (1 carat up to 7 carats, like in the data) are more valuable for cutting.
Treatment: Natural, untreated stones are graded higher than treated ones.
Shape & Form: Rough that can be faceted without much wastage is considered facet-grade, as in the 150-carat lot above.
So, grading considers colour, clarity, size, treatment, and faceting potential, just like the rough emeralds mentioned from Pakistan.
