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

This translucent 3.57 carat round greenish yellow chrysoberyl, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, presents a rare combination of impactful size and exceptional visual purity, making it an ideal centerpiece for a statement ring or pendant. Measuring 9.27 x 8.90 x 4.59 mm and fashioned as a cabochon, the gem displays a smooth dome and excellent polish that enhances its translucency, allowing color and light to interact softly across the surface. The medium color intensity balances presence with versatility, producing a lively greenish yellow tone that is elegant under natural daylight and warmed lighting conditions. Because this specimen is untreated, with no enhancement, its color and character are wholly natural, which is a key consideration for educated buyers seeking provenance and authenticity.

Clarity is a primary value driver at this size, and this chrysoberyl is graded eye clean when evaluated at eye level, meaning no inclusions or features are visible to the unaided eye under normal inspection. That clarity, combined with the cabochon cut and an excellent polish, yields a clean, bright appearance that reads as larger and more luminous than stones of similar carat weight with more visible internal features. Chrysoberyl is also prized for its durability, registering at about 8.5 on the Mohs scale, so this 3.57 carat piece is suitable for daily wear in high profile settings that showcase its size, such as a bold solitaire or a halo mounting that frames and amplifies its presence. Originating from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a historic source known for producing high quality chrysoberyl, this gem carries geographic significance that often resonates with collectors and connoisseurs. When assessing value, consider the combination of natural origin, absence of enhancements, eye clean clarity, substantial dimensions, and superior polish, all attributes that contribute to long term desirability and resale potential. If you would like guidance on setting options or a bespoke design to maximize this chrysoberyl as a signature piece, The Natural Gemstone Company is ready to assist.
