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

This exquisite translucent 1.71 carat oval greenish yellow chrysoberyl from Ceylon Sri Lanka is a rare find that will elevate any high end gemstone collection. Measuring 6.91 x 5.55 x 4.30 mm, the stone has been shaped into a refined oval cabochon that emphasizes its soft glow and internal depth, qualities that many faceted stones cannot replicate. The gem displays medium color intensity with a luminous, greenish yellow hue that appears alive under changing light, and its clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means it offers visual purity without appearing unnaturally flawless. Finished with an excellent polish and carrying no enhancements, this chrysoberyl stands apart from many market alternatives that are heat treated, glass filled, or synthetically produced. Collectors seeking authenticity and provenance will appreciate that this stone is natural, untreated, and responsibly sourced, attributes that add both intrinsic and resale value compared to more common or treated pieces.

Compared to similarly sized chrysoberyls and other yellow green gems on the market, this cabochon presents a unique balance of character and collector grade quality. Many stones in this color range sacrifice clarity for color, or undergo enhancements to achieve marketable tones, while this gem offers a genuine medium intensity color alongside a tranquil translucency, making it versatile for bespoke settings and display pieces. The cabochon cut produces a gentle sheen and soft light play that sits beautifully in vintage and contemporary designs alike, and its 1.71 carat weight makes it substantial enough to be a focal point without overwhelming a refined mounting. For discerning buyers who prioritize natural origin, transparent grading, and meticulous finishing, The Natural Gemstone Company offers this chrysoberyl as a superb acquisition, a stone that complements faceted rarities and broadens the depth of a curated collection. If you seek a piece that combines rarity, honest grading, and refined aesthetic appeal, this Ceylon chrysoberyl is an ideal addition, and our team is ready to assist with further details or bespoke setting options.
