2.07 Ct. Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At first glance this 2.07 carat cushion shape yellowish green chrysoberyl immediately distinguishes itself from the sea of green and yellow gemstones on the market, and The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present this exceptional piece. Originating from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source renowned for producing gems with clarity and lively color, this stone was faceted into a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation with broad flashes of color. Measuring 7.21 by 6.77 by 4.76 millimeters, the gem is large enough to make a statement in a solitaire ring, pendant, or classic cufflinks, yet its proportions remain elegant and wearable. The clarity grade is reported as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which in practical terms means the gem reads as visually clean to the naked eye and reveals its internal beauty under magnification. With intense color intensity and an excellent polish, and importantly no enhancement, this chrysoberyl presents a natural, untouched presence that is increasingly rare among competitively priced colored stones.

When you compare this chrysoberyl to alternatives that are commonly used to achieve greenish yellow tones, the differences become clear. Peridot, while often less expensive, tends to have a softer feel both in color saturation and durability, as it can show more internal features and has a lower hardness. Yellow sapphire can reach comparable durability, but yellow sapphires are frequently heat treated to achieve their hue, and their yellow tends to sit more purely on the spectrum without the lively green undertone that gives this chrysoberyl such personality. Tourmaline can show rich greens and greens with yellow accents, but many specimens lack the same combination of transparency and brilliance you see here. This chrysoberyl combines a robust hardness that wears well for everyday jewelry, a crisp mixed brilliant cut that returns light with lively sparkle, and a rare yellowish green color that is intense rather than washed out, making it an exceptional choice for both investment and design focused buyers.

The color of this stone is one of its most compelling selling points, and it will truly stand out in any jewelry setting. The yellowish green hue sits in a sweet spot that captures attention without overwhelming other design elements, and the mixed brilliant cut ensures that the color flashes play dynamically as the piece moves. In a white metal setting the gem will read as a luminous chartreuse spark, with the bright facets catching light and adding fire. In a warm gold setting the stone will lean more towards a honeyed green glow, offering a vintage inspired effect that pairs beautifully with intricate mountings. Because the gem is transparent and eye clean, set kitchens or closed back designs are not necessary to create a vibrant presence, allowing designers to showcase the stone with open, modern settings that emphasize light return. Whether you favor a low profile bezel that lets the color do the talking or a cathedral style prong setting that maximizes brilliance, this chrysoberyl brings a color energy that is immediately noticeable and consistently flattering on a wide range of skin tones.

Value and long term desirability are where this Ceylon chrysoberyl surpasses many market peers. Its combination of natural, untreated color, eye clean clarity, and excellent polish gives it a premium feel that is hard to find at comparable prices for other gem species with similar visual impact. Because this gem has received no enhancement, collectors and buyers who prioritize natural stones will recognize the rarity and integrity of their purchase. Its 2.07 carat weight and cushion outline provide versatility for designers and custom jewelers, delivering a presence larger than many typical one carat stones while maintaining classic proportions. When you shop with The Natural Gemstone Company you are not only acquiring a beautiful gemstone, you are gaining access to a piece that has been carefully selected for optical performance, origin, and condition, and that offers a level of confidence that many mass market alternatives cannot match. For a client seeking a standout center stone that will age gracefully and maintain both aesthetic and monetary value, this chrysoberyl is an outstanding option.

Finally, consider how this stone will elevate a finished piece compared to more common choices. In bespoke work the gem will serve as a focal point that invites conversation, a modern classic that blends unexpected color with durable wearability. Compared to mass produced stones that may be heavily treated or show obvious inclusions, this cushion shape chrysoberyl reads as refined and authentic, and it allows jewelers to create designs that are timeless rather than trendy. The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind the sourcing and presentation of this gem, and we can advise on mounting styles, metal pairings, and complementary accent stones to ensure the finished piece showcases the gem at its brightest. If you want a gemstone that will stand out in any jewelry setting through its unique yellowish green vibrancy, its natural Ceylon provenance, and its excellent cut and polish, this 2.07 carat cushion chrysoberyl is a superior choice that combines beauty, durability, and long term value.
