There are stones that glitter and there are stones that whisper, and this yellowish green chrysoberyl from The Natural Gemstone Company belongs to the latter, a quiet lyric of color and form that invites a closer look and a softer spoken vow. We present a translucent, oval shape gem weighing 1.67 carat, its gentle silhouette measured with care at 6.68 x 6.20 x 4.00 mm, a cabochon cut that transforms light into a subtle inner glow. In a market where chrysoberyl of notable size often leans toward smaller, more common tones, finding a cabochon of this weight and this delicate yellowish green hue is an uncommon pleasure. The color lands at a medium intense color intensity, neither shouting nor coy, but resonating like a summer field at dusk, a rare tone among its peers that sets it apart in both scale and chroma.
Look closely and you will see why this gem feels like a small world gathered into a jewel, translucent enough to let memory and light play together, very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, inclusions that only deepen its character, like fine brushstrokes in a miniature painting. The excellent polish amplifies that softness, a satin finish that makes the surface sing when it catches the light, while the cabochon form cradles the color and encourages a warm, internal radiance rather than a flash of external brilliance. There is no enhancement, the gem is offered exactly as the earth shaped it, a thoughtful and honest truth from its Tanzanian origin, where mineral and sun conspired to produce a gem of uncommon poise. For collectors and romantics alike, the provenance and the untouched nature of this chrysoberyl are part of the jewel s narrative, a reassurance that each glance reveals the same natural soul that the artisan saw before polishing began.
Imagine this oval resting at the heart of a ring, a pendant, or a bespoke treasure, its size of 1.67 carat and dimensions of 6.68 x 6.20 x 4.00 mm allowing it to sit confidently yet gracefully, a presence that is both intimate and undeniably rare in comparison to more typical chrysoberyl offerings. While many stones of this species are presented in smaller weights or in more muted or uniform greens, this yellowish green nuance and this scale create a balance that feels both singular and wearable, a small miracle of proportion and tint. At The Natural Gemstone Company we often speak of gems as vessels for stories, and this stone seems written for the kind of promises that linger, for someone who values rarity not as a loud proclamation but as a private treasure. If you are seeking a piece that will become an heirloom of sentiment and taste, a chrysoberyl like this, natural, polished to excellence, and born in Tanzania, is a rare opportunity to hold something that will age into legend as gracefully as it gleams today.
