2.09 Ct. Chrysoberyl from Madagascar

There are moments when a gemstone transcends mere beauty and becomes a statement, a private triumph of taste and discernment, and this 2.09 carat radiant shape yellowish green chrysoberyl is exactly such a jewel. Transparent and luminous, it measures 7.26 x 6.71 x 4.99 mm, dimensions that speak to an uncommon generosity of scale for this species and hue. The radiant cut has been executed with an exquisite hand, producing a geometry of facets that catch and return light with a crisp yet honeyed radiance. At eye level the clarity has been graded as very slightly included, a confirmation that what you see is essentially pure, a stone that looks flawless to the casual glance and rewards closer inspection with the quiet hallmarks of natural origin. The color intensity is intense, a vivid yellowish green that sits between springtime peridot and a refined apple green, but with the durability and brilliance that are the signature of chrysoberyl. With an excellent polish and absolutely no enhancement, this gem arrives exactly as the earth fashioned it, a natural rarity presented with the care and exacting standards of The Natural Gemstone Company.

Rarity is not merely a talking point when describing this chrysoberyl, it is the defining attribute that sets it apart from the more commonly seen examples. Chrysoberyl is admired for its clarity and refractive fire, but stones of this size that also possess an intense yellowish green color are seldom encountered. Most chrysoberyls in the market appear in smaller sizes or in paler tones, making larger, vividly colored examples highly collectible. When you consider the balance of weight, color saturation, and transparency that this gem presents, it becomes clear that comparable stones are exceptional in frequency. Collectors and connoisseurs will recognize that finding a natural, unenhanced chrysoberyl of over two carats with such pure tone and lively saturation is a rare opportunity, one that elevates the stone beyond accessory and into the realm of heirloom. For those who wish to own something both beautiful and scarce, this gem represents a choice reserved for the discerning few who understand that true rarity is measured in both quality and character.

The provenance of a gemstone is part of its narrative, and this chrysoberyl hails from Madagascar, a source increasingly respected for producing gems with fine color and integrity. The stone exhibits an intense color intensity that is consistent across its facets, and the excellent polish allows each plane to speak with clarity, producing scintillation and depth. The radiant shape, chosen for its ability to maximize light return while preserving weight, renders the stone versatile for both classic and modern settings. With dimensions of 7.26 x 6.71 x 4.99 mm the gem sits comfortably on a finger or as the centerpiece of a bespoke pendant, creating presence without overwhelming. The clarity described as very slightly included at eye level means that inclusions do not detract from the visual impact, rather they are gentle reminders of the stone's natural history. Importantly, with no enhancement recorded, the color and clarity are intrinsic qualities, a guarantee of authenticity that collectors prize. The Natural Gemstone Company presents this chrysoberyl with full regard for these attributes, each detail documented and each stone selected to meet the highest expectations of connoisseurs.

To possess this chrysoberyl is to affirm a standard of refinement, to choose an object that speaks to achievement and cultivated taste. Imagine the stone set in a high polished platinum bezel that allows the yellowish green to breathe, or cradled in a warm gold mount that intensifies its green undertone, each option a personal expression of style. Beyond immediate beauty, this gem is a considered acquisition, one that holds appeal to those who value rarity, provenance, and natural integrity. The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind this offering with the knowledge that true luxury is rooted in authenticity and rarity, and we invite you to consider this chrysoberyl as a signature piece that will define a collection and travel through generations. In an era of mass produced adornments, a natural, unenhanced, intensely colored chrysoberyl of this size is an assertion of individuality, a refined possession that declares your appreciation of the exceptional.
