3.40 Ct. Yellowish Green Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This extraordinary yellowish green chrysoberyl from Ceylon, Sri Lanka is a study in heritage and quiet power, a stone that speaks to ancient craft and enduring taste. Weighing 3.40 carat and fashioned into a graceful cushion shape, this gem measures 10.52 x 7.09 x 5.09 mm, and displays a transparent clarity that allows its inner light to shine without restraint. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to marry classical form with modern scintillation, producing a balance of sparkle and depth that flatters both traditional and contemporary settings. With a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish, this chrysoberyl requires no enhancement, and arrives to the collector as nature intended. The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present this rare example of Ceylon chrysoberyl, a gem whose provenance carries with it generations of gemcutting knowledge and cultural meaning.

Chrysoberyl has been treasured across the Indian Ocean basin for centuries, and Ceylon has been a fertile cradle for gems that entered royal treasuries and ritual practices. In many cultures chrysoberyl has been fashioned into amulets and talismans, set into rings worn by those who sought protection on long voyages, and set into pendants destined for ceremonial robes. The yellowish green hue of this stone recalls historic pieces that were prized for their optimism and association with renewal, while the robust nature of chrysoberyl made it a practical choice for daily wear in heirloom pieces passed from generation to generation. Owning a piece such as this is to hold a fragment of that continuum, a link between the lapidary tables of Ceylon and the hands of contemporary connoisseurs who value lineage as much as light and color.

For the jeweler and the collector who reveres classic composition, the cushion shape and mixed brilliant cut of this gem offer a versatile canvas. In a simple four prong setting the stone will present a formal, timeless profile that echoes antique signet proportions, and when embraced by a halo of petite diamonds it will sing with a steady, dignified brilliance suitable for an engagement ring that favors tradition over trend. The dimensions and substantial weight make this chrysoberyl well suited to rings and pendants that are intended to be worn often, and the very slightly included clarity grade preserves a largely eye clean appearance while retaining the natural character that distinguishes natural stones from their synthetic counterparts. Because no enhancement has been applied, the intense color is wholly native, a direct expression of the Ceylon earth and the geological patience that produced it.
