1.33 Ct. Cabochon Chrysoberyl from Madagascar

There are jewels that announce themselves quietly, with a restrained confidence that compels attention without the need for ostentation. This one of a kind translucent greenish yellow chrysoberyl, weighing 1.33 carat, is such a jewel. Cut into a perfectly proportioned round shape and fashioned as a cabochon, it presents a soft, internal radiance that seems to glow from within. The medium light color intensity offers a rare balance between vitality and subtlety, a hue that reads as both fresh and timeless depending on the light. When you hold it, the excellent polish and the cabochon profile combine to create a silky surface that invites the eye to linger, while the stone’s translucence reveals layered depth that changes with movement. Sourced from the mineral rich terrains of Madagascar and offered exclusively through The Natural Gemstone Company, this chrysoberyl is not a mass produced item but a singular discovery, an offering that invites connoisseurs into an exclusive circle of owners who appreciate the quiet power of natural beauty.

The story of this gem is in the details, each measured and preserved to honor its natural origin. The dimensions are 6.03 x 5.92 x 3.65 mm, a size that translates to strong presence on the finger or as a focal element in bespoke jewelry, yet retains an intimate scale that rewards close viewing. Clarity is graded as slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a characteristic that adds character and authenticity rather than detracting from the gem’s allure. There has been no enhancement to alter its natural state, no treatments to fabricate color or clarity, which is a distinction increasingly rare in today’s market. The cabochon cut was chosen deliberately to amplify the stone’s inner glow, to create a continuous plane of reflected light across the dome that showcases the excellent polish. Chrysoberyl is also a stone of notable endurance, registering around 8.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, which means this treasure is suitable for everyday wear with thoughtful setting and care. The origin of Madagascar lends additional provenance and desirability, as the island’s deposits are known for producing specimens with unique tones and exceptional formation.
