Natural Emerald (Panna/Zamrud) – Weight 2.35 Carat – Origin Swat Valley (Pakistan) – Shape Oval

Description

This 2.35 carat Natural Emerald, known as Panna or Zamrud, comes from the Swat Valley in Pakistan, a region celebrated worldwide for producing some of the finest emeralds outside Colombia. Cut as an oval with a well-faceted crown, the stone displays a rich, saturated green color with the natural internal inclusions — often called “jardin” (garden) by gemologists — that are a hallmark of genuine, untreated emerald.

Panna holds deep significance in Vedic astrology, associated with the planet Mercury (Budh) and traditionally worn to enhance intellect, communication, and business success. Emeralds are naturally included stones by their very nature, and this visible internal character is part of what distinguishes a real emerald from a synthetic or heavily treated imitation.

Sourced from the historic Swat mines, this stone offers the sought-after combination of strong natural color and regional provenance, making it a meaningful choice for those seeking an authentic emerald for jewelry or astrological purposes.
