1.43 Ct. Greenish Yellow Cabochon Chrysoberyl from Tanzania

This translucent greenish yellow chrysoberyl weighs 1.43 carats and is fashioned as an oval cabochon with precise measurements of 6.92 x 5.39 x 3.94 mm. The domed cabochon cut presents a smooth, uninterrupted surface with an excellent polish that enhances the stone's internal glow and surface luster. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is graded slightly included, with fine internal features that are visible only upon close inspection and that contribute to the gem's natural character. Color intensity is medium, providing a balanced greenish yellow tone that reads as fresh and restrained under a variety of lighting conditions. This specimen is natural, with no enhancement, and originates from Tanzania, reflecting the provenance and geological character associated with East African chrysoberyl. The cabochon form produces a narrow band of reflected light across the dome, a restrained chatoyant quality that can add visual interest when the gem is viewed in motion or under directional illumination.

The combination of size, color, and cut makes this chrysoberyl versatile for both casual and formal applications, suitable for a minimalist everyday ring or an elegant pendant for evening wear. At 1.43 carats the gem is substantial enough to serve as a focal point in bespoke jewelry while retaining proportions that adapt well to bezel, collet, or low profile settings that protect the cabochon surface. Chrysoberyl’s hardness on the Mohs scale is approximately 8.5, providing durable wear for rings, necklaces, and other pieces when set appropriately. For care use mild soap and water with a soft brush and avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners to preserve polish and surface integrity. The Natural Gemstone Company offers this untreated Tanzanian chrysoberyl for customers seeking a naturally occurring, well finished cabochon with considered color and enduring utility, suitable for designers and private collectors who value stones that perform equally well in everyday and formal contexts.
