3.16 Ct. Chrysoberyl from Tanzania

If you are searching for a single stone that can be both a showpiece for a discerning collector and the centerpiece for an unforgettable engagement ring, this 3.16 carat oval chrysoberyl from Tanzania answers that call with confidence and charm, and The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present it to you. This gem measures 10.36 by 8.26 by 5.74 millimeters, a size that feels substantial on the finger while remaining elegant in most settings, and it has been shaped into an oval with a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation with classical outline. The color leans toward a yellowish green with intense color saturation, giving the stone a lively presence under natural light and artificial illumination alike, and the polish is excellent which means the surface finishes are crisp and clean, helping every facet to play its part in the overall brilliance. There has been no enhancement to alter its natural beauty, so what you see is the true character of a Tanzanian chrysoberyl that has been carefully prepared for immediate use in fine jewelry, and for customers who want a natural and unmodified gemstone this piece fits that brief perfectly.

As a shopper imagining an engagement ring that is elegant and a bit unconventional, or as a collector who values rarity and natural character, you will appreciate how the mixed brilliant cut of this oval chrysoberyl has been executed to maximize fire and life while preserving the stone volume and weight. The proportions create a lively play of light across the crown and through the pavilion, which brings out the intense color without overpowering the eye. Because chrysoberyl is a durable gem with good hardness, it stands up to daily wear when set in a secure mounting, and the generous table and even girdle allow jewelers to craft settings that protect the stone while showing off its color and cut. This chrysoberyl is an ideal candidate for a solitaire setting that lets the gem speak for itself, and it also makes an exceptional center stone for a three stone ring or a custom design where the unusual yellowish green hue will be the defining feature. Whether you are drawn to classic elegance or modern design, this gem offers flexibility and presence.

The inclusions within this chrysoberyl are subtle, and they act as the individual fingerprint that proves this stone is natural and uniquely itself, they do not detract from the gem but rather add to its story and provenance. Graded at very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the internal characteristics are fine and mostly visible only upon close inspection or under magnification, and they include delicate feather like planes and minute reflective crystals that catch light in interesting ways when the gem is moved. These small inclusions can create intriguing internal effects, a soft veil or whisper of texture that adds depth to the apparent color and makes the stone come alive with personality, and because they are natural formation features they serve as reliable identifiers for gemologists and experienced collectors who can trace traits back to the fabric of the host material. In practical terms the clarity grade means the stone appears clean to the unaided eye at normal viewing distances, while retaining internal signatures that confirm that the gem has not been filled or otherwise enhanced. For the buyer who values authenticity and who wants a piece that will become a personal heirloom, these inclusions are an advantage, they make each glance at the gem a reminder that what you own is an object of nature and time.
