An AGL report (# 1154523) on a 4.09-carat Colombian emerald is the documentation that matters most in this category — AGL is the American laboratory colored stone specialists rely on for origin and treatment, and its finding of only minor traditional clarity enhancement is the most favorable grade routinely issued. Victorian emerald brooches of this scale survive in far smaller numbers than rings from the same period, since brooches were worn harder and broken up more often. Note that the accompanying 2.50 carats of old mine cut stones are catalogued as emeralds but carry H-I/SI diamond grading, which is worth confirming before sale.
