Accent Stones Chrysoberyl Ring 1.23 Ct., 14K White & Yellow

The centerpiece of this ring is a translucent oval shaped chrysoberyl, weighing 1.23 carats, measuring 7.00 by 4.72 by 3.64 millimeters, presented in a cabochon cut that emphasizes the stone structure and surface luster. The gem displays a greenish yellow hue with intense color saturation, an eye clean clarity grade as evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish that allows light to flow across the surface with clarity. There has been no enhancement to the stone, preserving its natural character and intrinsic appeal. The cabochon form is particularly well chosen for this material, as it enhances body color and any linear optical effects, while the oval profile maintains a classical proportion that complements both modern and vintage inspired settings.

This chrysoberyl traces its origin to Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region with an established history of producing fine chrysoberyl and other distinguished gem species. Over geological time, gem crystals formed in host rocks and were concentrated in alluvial gravels by erosional processes, a natural history that has made Sri Lankan gemstones prized by collectors and connoisseurs for centuries. The provenance from Ceylon connects the gem to a long lineage of lapidary tradition, where skilled local cutters and polishers have refined material for international markets. That historical context contributes to the stone narrative, as the gem embodies both the deep time of its geological formation and the generations of human craftsmanship that have prepared it for setting in jewelry.

Supporting the central chrysoberyl is a carefully arranged assembly of white round natural diamonds. The primary accent group comprises diamonds totaling approximately 0.18 carats, each of clarity grade VS and color grade F and G, selected for their strong faceting and light return. An additional grouping of white round diamonds totaling approximately 0.081 carats, also clarity VS and color grade F and G, complements the composition and refines the surround. Together these diamonds provide measured contrast and scintillation without overpowering the central stone, creating a halo and tiered motif that enhances the apparent size and presence of the chrysoberyl. The combined diamond weight is approximately 0.261 carats, and their placement and quality reflect deliberate choices to balance brilliance, color consistency, and structural integrity.

The mounting combines 14K white gold and 14K yellow gold, a two tone approach that unifies contemporary fabrication with traditional warmth. The white gold elements provide a neutral backdrop to the diamond accents, maximizing their brightness and minimizing any color alteration to the diamonds, while the yellow gold shank offers a complementary warmth that harmonizes with the greenish yellow of the chrysoberyl. The construction emphasizes secure settings and subsurface support for the cabochon, with careful bezel and prong work to protect the stone edges and to maintain proportional silhouette. The use of 14K alloys contributes to long term wearability, offering a balance between hardness and malleability that supports precise finishing and repeated service.

Taken together, the natural origin, the absence of enhancement, the eye clean clarity, and the intense color saturation of the chrysoberyl contribute to the ring value in measurable ways. Provenance from Ceylon Sri Lanka reinforces collector interest, as material from this region is documented and historically sought after. The cabochon cut, excellent polish, and harmonious diamond setting add layers of artisanal value, while the durable combination of chrysoberyl hardness 8.5 and 14K gold construction supports everyday wear and longevity. This ring represents a synthesis of natural history and refined workmanship, a statement of material quality that is consistent with the standards of The Natural Gemstone Company, and an object whose appeal is grounded in verifiable gemological and fabrication characteristics.
