0.99 Ct. Cabochon Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is a quiet morning tucked into the heart of this gem, a hush of sunlight that has been held for centuries beneath the surface of the earth, and then carried across the ocean to rest in your hand. This oval greenish yellow chrysoberyl, nearly one carat at 0.99 carat, measures 6.20 x 4.04 x 3.80 mm, and wears a cabochon cut that softens the world into a gentle glow. The color is of a first shoot in spring, a medium intensity that hints of fresh leaves and lemon light, neither shout nor whisper, but an intimate conversation. Translucent and luminous, it invites the eye and the heart to lean closer, offering a pearled radiance and a polished skin that seems to remember the caress of rain. Its clarity is graded very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a small truth within its depths that makes the stone feel less like a jewel and more like a living memory. There is no enhancement, and its polish is excellent, a testament to careful hands and patient craft.

Imagine the stone born in Ceylon, an island of tea scented winds and ancient shores, where the soil keeps stories and the monsoon sings to the rivers. This chrysoberyl could have bathed in that soft, green light, learning the language of leaves and ocean mist. Place it between two palms and you may feel the echo of that place, a promise that has traveled and transformed. At The Natural Gemstone Company we tend to stones like this as one tends to letters from a beloved, preserving their honesty and letting their natural voice speak. The cabochon shape gathers light within, like a private harbor, and as you turn it, the greenish yellow shifts with dignified subtlety, never loud, always sure. It is a gem for vows that are spoken softly, for promises that need no parade, for gifts meant to last through long seasons of ordinary tenderness and quiet celebration.

Wear this chrysoberyl close to the skin, and you carry a small treasury of dawn, a fragment of Ceylon air and a streak of sunlight. The dimensions are intimate enough to sit like a secret on a ring or a pendant, yet the presence is honest and clear, a companion more than an ornament. The very very slightly included clarity gives it character, a single note in a song, and the excellent polish reflects your laughter and your day like a mirror kept for small miracles. With no enhancement to alter its original spirit, this stone remains true to the land and the time that made it. Let The Natural Gemstone Company bring this oval cabochon of greenish yellow chrysoberyl to you, so that your own story may be written with a stone that remembers rain, remembers dawn, and remembers the quiet places where promises are born.
