Even being a fairly expensive gemstone, genuine emerald stone remains high in demand in national and international markets. Emerald stone price begin from ₹ 800 ($12.30 ) and may go as high as ₹ 2 lakh ($3076) per carat, depending on the origin, clarity, color, cut, carat weight and size of the gemstone. Below mentioned are the factors that affect the panna stone price and the quality of Markat stone:
Owing to superior color quality, colombian emerald price range in India stretches much beyond than other origins, costing the buyer anywhere between ₹ 3,200 to ₹ 2 Lakh per carat ($49.23 to $3076). Zambian emeralds are quite popular as well and can draw between ₹ 2,700 and ₹ 1.5 Lakh per carat ($41.5 to $ 2307.69). Brazilian emeralds are relatively more affordable.
In emeralds, the rule goes as brighter and greener is the color, higher is emerald stone price in market. However, too much iron (found in some varieties) can cause a bluish tint and decrease the value of green natural emerald stone in the market. Since, majority of garuda pacha stone from Colombia are vividly saturated and display a fine balance between green and blue, Colombian Emerald price per carat remains higher than other origins.
Emeralds are graded as ‘Type III’ on clarity indicators, implying almost every piece will have some degree of inclusions. Thus, natural emerald price increases drastically for stones without visible inclusions. Zambian emerald price per carat fares higher than other origins on account of relatively better clarity.
Cutting a gemstone can increase its cost by up to 20% because of the stone wastage incurred in the process. A heavily faceted natural green panna stone will cost more than a round or oval Emerald.
Least and yet reflective, carat weight can influence panna stone price especially when size and clarity co exist on the same scale. Since, emeralds are fairly included, finding a panna stone above a few carats with eye-clean clarity is highly rare. Likewise original panna stone price will reflect its rarity. On the other hand, a high-carat emerald with dull green color will be cheaper than a smaller one displaying bright, greenish-blue tone.
Certain treatments like oiling are acceptable in emeralds. An emerald treated with hard epoxy-like resins is less valuable than the ones treated with safer colorless oiling. For more read: Treatment of Emerald Stone

Understanding natural properties and market dynamics around the gemstone can help the buyer to select a piece that can fulfill his astrological and financial conditions. Before you buy emerald stone online or from trusted dealers check the price guide of emerald. The following parameters can be looked upon to choose the original panna stone:
Panna mines have been discovered in Colombia, Zambia, Brazil, Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, United States and Australia. Being highly saturated and perfectly balanced in green and blue tints, Colombian emeralds are the considered to be superior than other origins, followed by Zambian emeralds. Brazilian Emeralds are dark and thus less desirable.
Color of Emerald weighs pretty much above every other quality factor. The value of green Emerald or Panna stone increases further if it is richly saturated and consistently colored. Natural Emeralds from Colombia are considered to be of the finest color quality.
Emeralds are known for containing three phase inclusions – solid crystals, liquid films and gaseous bubbles, found less or more in almost all origins. Inclusions in emeralds from Chivor mine in Colombia often exist as pyrite, albite and needle like growth tubes. Zambian Emerald contain black dot like specks and are usually color-zoned. An eye clean emerald with bright-green color is highly rare and thus is exceptionally expensive.
A rather rare and unique variety known as Trapiche emerald is found in Colombia and Brazil. Trapiche or Star Emeralds are unique in their display of impurities appearing in a six-pointed, star like radial fashion. In addition, ‘Chatoyancy or Cat’s eye’ effect displayed by this gemstone, positions it as one of the most rare and majestic gemstones. Like other varieties, Traphiche emeralds can also be synthesized in labs as well as treated with oil and epoxy resins.
