From the heart of Ceylon Sri Lanka to your collection, this greenish yellow chrysoberyl carries the quiet story of earth and hands. Mined responsibly from artisanal deposits, each rough piece was selected for its natural chatoyancy and gentle translucence, then entrusted to local cutters who preserve the stone rather than force it to conform. At The Natural Gemstone Company we work with partners who prioritise fair wages and minimal environmental disruption, giving preference to miners who rehabilitate extraction sites and to lapidaries who use low impact polishing methods. The result is a gem that still feels like a find from the landscape, a rounded cabochon that celebrates the mineral as it was formed, not as it was manufactured.
This specimen weighs 1.72 carat and measures 6.17 x 6.15 x 4.45 mm, presented in a classic round shape with a cabochon cut that enhances its semi translucent beauty. The clarity is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a natural fingerprint that attests to genuine origin, and the color shows a medium intense greenish yellow that shifts with light. There is no enhancement, and the polish is excellent, creating a soft luminous surface with a subtle chatoyant band when tilted. For the conscious collector this chrysoberyl fits effortlessly into an ethical wardrobe, ready to be set in a delicately crafted ring or a pendant that lets light pass through its body. It pairs beautifully with warm metals or a muted platinum setting that allows its unique tone to sing. Owning this gem means more than possessing a stone, it means choosing transparency and care, supporting small scale Sri Lankan mining communities, and valuing natural character over artificial perfection. At The Natural Gemstone Company we include provenance details and handling guidance so your gem can be worn and treasured for generations, and when you select this chrysoberyl you bring home a piece of Ceylon geology and the story of hands that transformed it into a jewel.
