12.88 Ct. Aquamarine from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing an exquisite 12.88 carat greenish blue aquamarine from The Natural Gemstone Company, this gemstone is a masterpiece of nature, combining elegance with exemplary craftsmanship. The stone, originating from the renowned gemstone-rich lands of Ceylon, or modern-day Sri Lanka, carries with it a heritage of quality and history, setting a high standard within the world of aquamarines. This remarkable gemstone showcases precise dimensions of 16.40 x 16.40 x 8.84 mm, embodying a harmonious balance of size and brilliance that catches the eye instantly. Its round shape, achieved with masterful skill, provides versatility in design potential, making it a sought-after choice for jewelry artisans and collectors alike.

The aquamarine's mixed brilliant cut is pivotal in accentuating its enchanting greenish blue hue. This specific faceting style involves a combination of step and brilliant facets, ingeniously crafted to maximize the stone’s fire and brilliance. The cut ensures that each facet captures and reflects light in a dazzling display, enhancing its natural color and creating a vivid play of light that accentuates its purity and vitality. The mixed brilliant cut is meticulously executed, bringing forth the aquamarine’s inherent beauty and adding to its visual depth and allure. This expertly cut gemstone, with its excellent polish, shows flawless smoothness and a glossy finish, aspects that are highly valued by those who understand the fine art of gemstone preparation.

Color-wise, the gemstone presents a light, yet captivating greenish blue tone, possessing a unique charm. While this aquamarine’s color intensity is categorized as light, it is enriched with an alluring allure attributed to its subtle hue that can complement a variety of skin tones. Light enough to remain understated, yet rich enough to be noticed, its ethereal coloring adds a touch of serene elegance, making it ideal for jewelry that signifies peace and tranquility. This particular shade of greenish blue can offset the warmth of olive or tanned complexion beautifully, offering a refreshing contrast which makes the skin appear brighter. Conversely, on fair skin tones, its delicate tint enhances the complexion by bringing a burst of gentle color, creating a striking juxtaposition that can instantly draw attention. It truly offers a versatile appeal when crafted into fine jewelry settings that cater to individuality and personal preferences.

Further contributing to its appeal is the stone's clarity and inclusions, which are assessed at an 'eye clean' level or very slightly included. This clarity grade indicates there are few if any inclusions visible to the naked eye, an excellent feature, ensuring that the visual experience of its color and brilliance is not impeded. This clarity enhances the gemstone's overall radiance, giving it an unimpeachable presence in any chosen jewelry setting. From the creation of a commanding pendant to an elegant pair of earrings or a sophisticated ring, wearers of this aquamarine can rest assured of its magnificence and integrity that projects refined taste and an appreciation for first-class gemstones.
