A one-carat stone rarely gets to make a strong statement, but proportion helps here — cut long and lean, this octagon reads larger on the finger than its weight suggests. The color sits comfortably in the middle of Sutara's range: a balanced yellow-green, neither the pale champagne nor the deep khaki found elsewhere in this collection, with fine internal striations and a small warm inclusion near one facet edge that mark it unmistakably as this deposit's material. It's an honest, wearable stone rather than a showpiece — the kind that anchors a piece of jewelry rather than dominates it. Untreated, Sutara, on a GFCO report.
