3.52 Ct. Greenish Yellow Cabochon Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This translucent greenish yellow chrysoberyl of 3.52 carats makes an immediate impression because weight matters in gemstones, and this piece carries a weight that elevates it from common to uncommon, and from desirable to collectible. At 3.52 carats the gem occupies a rarity sweet spot for chrysoberyl, especially in a round cabochon shape, where obtaining clean material at this size is significantly less frequent than in smaller stones. The dimensions of 8.48 x 8.10 x 5.41 mm confirm a substantial face and depth, a balance that translates into visual presence on the finger or pendant, a comfortable proportion for many settings, and a physical heft that customers and collectors instinctively value. The cabochon cut enhances the gem character, accentuating translucency and the soft interplay of light across the dome, while the excellent polish ensures a refined luster and tactile smoothness that distinguishes a well finished cabochon from a merely serviceable one. With an eye clean clarity grade at eye level, medium color intensity, and absolutely no enhancement declared, this Ceylon origin chrysoberyl presents as a naturally honest gemstone, ready to be set into an heirloom piece or treasured in a private collection, and the size combined with these qualities directly contributes to its market value and rarity.

When comparing this chrysoberyl to other green and yellow green stones commonly available on the market, its advantages become clear, because buyers frequently weigh durability, natural color, and untreated status alongside aesthetics. Compared to peridot, which can show attractive color but is softer and more prone to wear, chrysoberyl offers superior durability and a solid gemological reputation that supports long term use in rings and daily wear pieces. Compared to green sapphires, which often command high prices and are commonly heat treated, this chrysoberyl stands out for its natural, unenhanced state and for delivering an elegant, unique hue of greenish yellow that is less common in the marketplace. Against garnets and tourmalines, which may appear in similar color ranges, chrysoberyl presents a denser, cleaner look in this particular specimen, with the eye clean clarity at 3.52 carats giving it a clarity advantage that elevates its visual appeal when set. The origin, Ceylon Sri Lanka, adds provenance that collectors respect because Sri Lankan chrysoberyl has a long history of producing fine color and quality, and the absence of enhancement means that what you see is what nature provided, not what treatment or modification created. In short, when quality, natural state, and size are considered together, this 3.52 carat cabochon chrysoberyl compares favorably to many alternative gems in its color family, providing a compelling value proposition for buyers who want something distinct and resilient.

For those seeking an exceptional gemstone purchase, The Natural Gemstone Company offers this 3.52 carat, round shape greenish yellow chrysoberyl as a rare opportunity to acquire an untreated, eye clean, cabochon cut treasure from Ceylon Sri Lanka, with dimensions of 8.48 x 8.10 x 5.41 mm, medium color intensity, and an excellent polish. The weight not only makes it a standout visually, it also underpins its investment potential, because larger, untreated chrysoberyls with clean clarity are scarce and increasingly sought after by connoisseurs and jewelers alike. This size is versatile enough to become a centerpiece for a custom ring, an elegant pendant, or a distinctive collector specimen, and the cabochon profile lends itself to designs that celebrate the stone as an object of natural beauty rather than a faceted flash. For clients who prefer documented provenance and transparency about enhancements, this chrysoberyl meets those criteria, and The Natural Gemstone Company stands ready to assist with certification guidance, bespoke setting recommendations, and secure purchase arrangements. If you are deciding between several stones, consider how weight, origin, and natural condition interact to create lasting value, and allow this 3.52 carat Ceylon chrysoberyl to be the measure by which you judge comparable options.
