Victoria Worth Reynolds, Tiffany & Co.'s Chief Gemologist, said:
The finest emerald ever mined from Colombia's renowned Muzo mine is now bearing the Tiffany name. This rectangular square cut emerald, weighing over 10 carats, was mined in December 2019 from the historic Puerto Arturo mine. Its exceptional clarity makes it a rare gem, providing excellent transparency and further enhancing its exceptional color. It is fracture-free and virtually inclusion-free, except for very few inclusions discovered under microscopic examination, consistent with Colombian emeralds from the Muzo mine. Furthermore, it displays the beautiful, perfectly saturated green color that has made Muzo emeralds so coveted. Its impressive size, renowned origin, beautiful color, and exceptional crystal quality all combine to make this one-of-a-kind emerald a true miracle of nature and a gemstone worthy of its new name: the Tiffany Muzo Emerald.
