1.07 Ct. Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are moments when a single gemstone announces itself as an heirloom in waiting, a private treasure that belongs to those who seek singular beauty, and this transparent 1.07 carat round chrysoberyl is exactly such a gem. With a rare greenish yellow hue of intense color intensity, and a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation and depth, this stone commands attention while remaining quietly refined. Measuring 6.06 by 6.08 by 3.97 mm, it is impeccably proportioned for both a refined solitaire and a bespoke, layered design, and its excellent polish allows light to travel through the pavilion and crown with a clarity that feels almost architectural. The clarity grade is eye clean as evaluated at eye level, a distinction that means the gem reads as pure and luminous to the unaided eye, and importantly, this chrysoberyl is entirely natural with no enhancement. Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a provenance that carries centuries of gemological heritage, and when you place this piece in your personal collection you are not merely acquiring a stone, you are receiving a link to a storied tradition of craftsmanship and connoisseurship at The Natural Gemstone Company.

Chrysoberyl has been treasured across cultures for its unique combination of brilliance, resilience, and luminous color, and this specimen draws on those time honored associations. In the courts and temples of South Asia chrysoberyl in various forms was set into rings and necklaces for rulers who required gems that could withstand daily wear while maintaining a noble radiance. Unlike softer colored stones chrysoberyl offered durability and a clarity that amplified the skill of the cutter, which made it a favorite for pieces intended to be worn for generations. In folk and traditional practice chrysoberyl has been used as an amulet and an emblem of steadfastness and clear intention, qualities that speak to both inner composure and outward distinction. The greenish yellow tone of this round gem evokes vintage jewels once reserved for discerning patrons and collectors, and its round mixed brilliant cut channels both modern precision and classical proportion, creating a piece that is historically resonant and contemporarily wearable. For those who appreciate provenance the fact that this gem is from Ceylon Sri Lanka is more than a geographic note, it is an affirmation of a lineage of mining, cutting, and polishing techniques refined over centuries, a lineage that we honor and uphold at The Natural Gemstone Company.

Owning this chrysoberyl is an invitation to join an intimate group of clients who place value on rarity, authenticity, and enduring style, and our role at The Natural Gemstone Company is to ensure that this experience is as personal as the gem itself.
