This certified green chrysoberyl offered by The Natural Gemstone Company presents a rare combination of clarity, natural color, and old world charm that separates it from the common choices on the market, such as green sapphires, tourmalines, and treated emeralds. At 1.54 carats and measuring 7.27 by 6.45 by 3.49 millimeters, this cushion shaped gem has been masterfully fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes internal light return while maintaining a soft, elegant silhouette. Its transparency and very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, create a look of openness and purity that many green gems lack. Unlike many emeralds and other beryl varieties that are commonly oiled or filled to enhance appearance, this chrysoberyl is natural with no enhancement, which means you enjoy its light green hue in its authentic state. The light color intensity lends a delicate, sophisticated tone that works beautifully in both vintage inspired and contemporary settings, and the excellent polish ensures the facets meet with precise crispness, producing a lively but refined sparkle that performs well under everyday lighting conditions.
When compared to similar stones, this Tanzanian chrysoberyl offers distinct advantages that make it a superior choice for collectors and fine jewelry clients who value provenance and integrity. Chrysoberyl sits high on the Mohs hardness scale, offering durability second only to corundum and diamond among commonly used gemstones, which makes it far more suited to daily wear than softer alternatives like tourmaline or many green beryls. Its resistance to wear and minimal need for treatment make it a practical heirloom material, and its natural state removes the uncertainty and depreciation concerns associated with treated stones. Sourcing from Tanzania brings additional pedigree, since East African localities are increasingly recognized for producing clean, well colored chrysoberyl crystals. The mixed brilliant cut applied to this cushion shape was chosen to enhance the stone’s natural internal dynamics, producing scintillation that competes with the best brilliant cuts on the market while preserving a warm cushion profile that flatters ring designs and pendants alike. For those comparing options, this gem delivers a refined balance of luster, clarity, and color, at a scale and weight that represent strong value relative to similarly attractive stones that are either treated or less durable.
Beyond its technical merits, this green chrysoberyl carries a sense of heritage that connects modern wearers to long standing traditions in which chrysoberyl family stones were prized as talismans, guardians, and symbols of clear judgment. Historically, chrysoberyl has been associated with protection and increased mental acuity in many cultures, used in signet rings and amulets for generations, and prized for its enduring brilliance and resistance to damage. This particular gem, with its pale green tone and clean transparency, evokes the subtlety of antique stones once set into classical pieces, while offering the practical benefits of modern cutting precision and predictable performance. Because it is untreated, the stone retains the kind of authenticity that collectors and connoisseurs seek when assembling a collection that honors both historical continuity and contemporary standards. The effect is a gem that looks at home in a period inspired setting, yet performs effortlessly for daily wear, making it attractive to clients who want to carry a piece of gemstone heritage into everyday life.
At The Natural Gemstone Company we stand behind this chrysoberyl as an outstanding example of why natural, untreated gemstones remain the best long term choice for value and satisfaction. The combination of a rare, transparent green tone, a well considered cushion proportions, mixed brilliant cutting for lively optics, and a clarity that reads very slightly included at eye level produces a piece that is both competitive and unique compared with other market offerings. For jewellers and private buyers seeking a mid sized statement stone that will remain resilient and desirable over time, this 1.54 carat Tanzanian chrysoberyl represents a thoughtful investment in quality and character. We provide certification and careful imagery to support confident purchase decisions, and we are available to advise on settings that will showcase the stone to its fullest advantage. Whether you are building a collection grounded in gemstone heritage or commissioning a singular piece that blends tradition with contemporary sensibility, this chrysoberyl delivers exceptional value, enduring beauty, and a clear lineage back to the classic uses that have sustained the gemstone market for centuries.
