6.18 Ct. Beryl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 6.18 carat radiant shape bluish green beryl from Ceylon Sri Lanka, measuring 13.40 x 10.20 x 7.12 mm, is a rare combination of size, clarity and natural color. Cut into a radiant faceted profile and finished with an excellent polish, this gem shows lively brilliance and clean facet definition that flatters its light color intensity. Clarity is very slightly included evaluated at eye level which means the stone reads clean to most observers while retaining natural character and structural integrity. No enhancement has been applied so the hue is wholly natural and stable, a factor that adds to both desirability and long term value. Presented by The Natural Gemstone Company this piece stands out as a fine example of Sri Lankan beryl where the geological provenance and careful cutting converge to deliver a gem that is elegant for fine jewelry and practical for regular wear.

When considering durability this beryl rates approximately 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale which places it notably higher than common quartz which is a 7 and near the hardness of topaz which is about an 8. This level of hardness ensures superior resistance to everyday scratches and abrasion compared with many other gemstones commonly offered at similar price points. Compared to corundum family gems such as sapphire which are a 9 on the Mohs scale this beryl is slightly softer but still more than adequate for rings and wearable pieces especially when set thoughtfully. Unlike many emeralds which are often heavily included and commonly treated to improve appearance, this untreated Sri Lankan beryl offers a clearer window into natural beauty and carries more predictable care expectations. In direct comparison to market alternatives this stone from The Natural Gemstone Company delivers an exceptional balance of clarity, honest untreated color, and reliable durability, making it a compelling choice for buyers seeking both beauty and lasting value. For customers weighing options, this beryl combines rarity of origin and natural presentation with the practical toughness needed for everyday jewelry use.
