3.38 Ct. Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Gemstone Company, we are thrilled to present a truly exceptional piece from our exquisite collection—a semi-transparent 3.38 carat round chrysoberyl. With its origins deeply rooted in the ancient soils of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this gemstone embodies the unique and mystical allure that makes it stand out in the world of fine gems. Its cabochon cut reveals the captivating beauty of a medium intensity brown hue that seems to change as it catches the light. This chrysoberyl not only showcases nature’s artistry but also offers an opportunity to own a piece of history that dates back millions of years.

The formation of this extraordinary chrysoberyl goes beyond simple beauty; it hails from geological marvels crafted over millions of years. As tectonic shifts and volcanic reactions gave rise to the verdant landscapes of Ceylon, profound chemical interactions were occurring beneath the earth's surface. This gemstone’s formation is rooted in this tumultuous and fiery past, where aluminum and beryllium merged under intense heat and pressure to create the distinguished clarity and color we see today. The slightly included clarity, visible only upon close inspection, speaks to its authenticity and natural genesis, qualities that set it apart from other gemstones on the market which often lack the character borne from such genuine processes.

Our chrysoberyl is meticulously polished to an excellent finish, enhancing its sheen and rounding out each facet with expert precision. As compared to other market offerings, its perfection in finish and cut translates into a stunning visual appeal rarely matched elsewhere. With measurements of 8.89 x 8.82 x 5.23 mm, this gemstone is versatile enough for diverse adornments, whether in bespoke jewelry designs or a singular statement piece. The round shape complements the modern minimalist aesthetic while maintaining a timeless and classic appeal. This balance offers discerning customers a versatile piece which both elevates their jewelry collection and emphasizes individual taste.

Unlike synthetic counterparts or lower grade options often seen elsewhere, the allure of our Ceylon chrysoberyl lies in its rarity and the rich historical context it embodies. At The Natural Gemstone Company, we pride ourselves on sourcing the finest natural gemstones, offering not just a product but a brilliant slice of Earth’s history. This gemstone’s medium color intensity is not just visually appealing but also represents a depth of beauty that is unique, creating a charm distinctly linked to the soils of Sri Lanka. Owning such a gem is not merely acquiring an object but partaking in a narrative of earth’s ancient storytelling, a luxurious choice that distinguishes our clientele’s collection with exclusivity and heritage value that are truly incomparable.
