VS2 inclusions are small and can be seen at 10x magnification, but not with the naked eye in most stones. Step cuts such as the emerald have large open facets that show inclusions more readily, and at 5 carats a VS2 is worth checking against its IGI plot.

This stone measures about 11.6 x 8.5 mm.  For comparison, a 4.5 carat emerald measures about 11.6 x 8.3 mm; a 6 carat emerald measures about 12.7 x 9.1 mm. Step cuts carry more weight in their depth, so a 5 carat emerald faces up slightly smaller than a round of the same weight, trading spread for its hall-of-mirrors look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions about this diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a 5 carat emerald E VS2 eye-clean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is usually eye-clean.
