The step-cut's transparent facets at the larger 2 carat face reveal inclusions very openly. Eye-clean SI1 emerald cuts are uncommon at any size and especially rare at 2 carats.

Generally not recommended. The transparent facets at 2 carats make concealment very difficult. VS1 is the standard. A smaller emerald at VS1 often looks better than a larger SI1. When looking for 2 carat emeralds, look between 1.9 to 2.2 carats.
