4.47 Ct. Greenish Yellow Chrysoberyl from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This extraordinary marquise of Ceylon chrysoberyl is a study in refined taste and quiet magnificence, a jewel reserved for those who understand the rare pleasure of true quality. At 4.47 carats and measuring 14.62 x 7.86 x 5.46 mm, its elegant proportions command attention while flattering the hand with the marquise shape renowned for elongating the finger. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, each facet has been calculated to maximize scintillation and depth, permitting the intense greenish yellow hue to glow from within with lively flashes of light. The clarity is very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, presenting an essentially eye clean appearance that enhances the gem's transparency and presence. With an excellent polish and no enhancement, this chrysoberyl arrives in its most honest and natural state, a direct testament to the storied mines of Ceylon and the exacting standards of The Natural Gemstone Company.

Beyond its captivating color and cut, this chrysoberyl is built to endure, making it a superb choice for both statement pieces and everyday wear. Chrysoberyl registers at 8.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, offering a level of scratch resistance superior to quartz which sits at 7, and harder than topaz which is 8, while approaching the durability of corundum at 9, and of course remaining shy of diamond at 10. This robustness means the gem will retain luster and resist abrasion over years of enjoyment, an ideal candidate for rings, pendants, and bespoke designs that become personal heirlooms. We recommend settings that showcase the elongated silhouette, with secure prong work or a protective bezel to ensure longevity while allowing light to animate the mixed brilliant facets. Offered exclusively by The Natural Gemstone Company, this transparent Ceylon chrysoberyl is more than a gemstone, it is an achievement, a wearable declaration of exceptional taste and lasting value.
