1.25 Ct. Greenish Yellow Cabochon Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite, translucent chrysoberyl offered by The Natural Gemstone Company weighs 1.25 carats and is fashioned as an oval cabochon measuring 7.32 x 6.28 x 3.01 mm. The cabochon cut and excellent polish create a smooth domed surface that gently disperses light through the body of the stone, emphasizing its greenish yellow hue and producing a pleasing internal glow. Graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the stone presents only minor internal characteristics that do not detract from its overall appearance or durability. With a medium color intensity and no enhancements, this natural specimen retains the authentic visual qualities collectors and connoisseurs seek, and its Sri Lankan provenance, Ceylon, further supports its desirability given that region’s long-established reputation for producing fine chrysoberyl.

For the educated buyer, the value proposition of this gem is multi-faceted. Chrysoberyl is a hard, durable species suitable for daily wear, and the 1.25 carat weight coupled with well-balanced proportions makes this cabochon versatile for rings, pendants, or bespoke signet styles. The medium intensity greenish yellow is uncommon and reads as a rich, bold color in person, a color that reads as a symbol of personal power and distinction when set into a thoughtful design. The lack of heat or clarity treatments preserves the gem’s natural state, which is important to collectors and those prioritizing untreated material. The combination of very slightly included clarity at eye level, excellent polish, and Ceylon origin offers both aesthetic pleasure and investment-minded confidence. Practical care is straightforward; due to chrysoberyl’s stability, periodic cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush will maintain the polish, and standard precautions against hard knocks should protect the cabochon profile.

If you are seeking a stone that communicates refined taste and a quiet but unmistakable authority, this greenish yellow chrysoberyl embodies those attributes. The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind the documented measurements and assessments provided, and we are available to advise on settings that will best showcase the stone’s luminous warmth and cabochon profile, ensuring the piece you commission or purchase will convey distinction and enduring wearability.
