Cushion cuts are uncommon in this deposit’s output — the material more often goes to step or elongated brilliant shapes, so a well-rounded cushion over a carat like this one is a deliberate cut, not a default. The color sits in a gentle olive-green register, but don’t mistake gentle for flat: the brilliant crown keeps the face lively, with light breaking into bright, shifting patches rather than settling into a single tone. A soft, approachable stone that still holds real presence at this size. GFCO confirms no heat, no treatment, Sutara origin.
