One oval cabochon of white jade is presented by The Natural Gemstone Company. The specimen weighs 11.77 carats and measures 18.06 x 13.22 x 6.16 millimeters. The gem is translucent, with a near colorless color intensity that reads as a soft, neutral white in various lighting conditions. The shape is a classic oval cabochon, with a smoothly domed crown and a well proportioned pavilion, executed to yield an even surface and consistent visual depth. The origin is Burma Myanmar, and the stone has received no enhancement, a characteristic that is often preferred by collectors and connoisseurs who prioritize untreated material.
The stone has been evaluated for clarity and is graded as very slightly included evaluated at eye level. In practical terms this grade indicates that inclusions are minimal and do not detract from the overall appearance when viewed without magnification, while still providing natural characteristics that confirm the gem is natural. The polish is excellent, producing a reflective, satiny sheen across the cabochon dome, and the cut proportions preserve a pleasing balance between surface area and depth. The translucency allows soft light transmission and a subtle internal glow, attributes that enhance the perception of body color and create an elegant, understated presence when set.
Dimensions and proportions support a variety of mounting options for fine jewelry, and the 6.16 millimeter height of the dome provides a substantial profile that reads well in bezel settings and secure prong techniques that accommodate cabochon forms. The near colorless tone and neutral character make the jade adaptable to mixed metal palettes and complementary stones, while the absence of enhancement is a defining factor for long term value and stability. Care recommendations follow standard practice for natural jade, including avoidance of harsh chemicals and extreme temperature changes, routine cleaning with mild soap and water, and secure setting practices to protect the polished dome from abrasion. Documentation of origin and treatment status is available through The Natural Gemstone Company for purchasers and for inclusion with any appraisal or certification process.
