3.53 Ct. Green Cabochon Jade from Burma (Myanmar)

This 3.53 carat round green jade, sourced from Burma Myanmar, is presented as an expertly executed cabochon, with dimensions of 9.87 by 9.95 by 4.38 millimeters, exhibiting near perfect circular symmetry. The cabochon cutting style emphasizes a high dome profile, with a dome height to diameter ratio of approximately 44 percent, a proportion chosen to maximize perceived color saturation and surface luster for opaque material. Color grade is medium intensity green, evenly distributed across the stone, and the surface shows an excellent polish that produces a soft, satiny sheen rather than a crystalline sparkle, a desirable quality for traditional jade cabochons. Clarity is graded as very slightly included at eye level, composed of fine, natural mineral and structural features that are intrinsic to untreated Burmese jade, and that contribute to the stones character without compromising stability or overall visual appeal. There are no enhancements, the piece is fully natural, and the absence of treatment preserves both provenance and long term value.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we highlight both the technical precision of the cutting and the cultural lineage of this piece. The choice of a classical cabochon forms a direct link to centuries of jade use across Southeast Asia and China where smooth domes were preferred for amulets, ritual objects, and personal seals, owing to their tactile quality and symbolic association with purity and longevity. This stones medium green tone and substantial dome make it particularly well suited to traditional bezel settings, carved mounts, and talismanic jewelry where impact is achieved through surface color and feel rather than optical brilliance. For the knowledgeable collector or designer this cabochon offers a balance of technical merit and historical continuity, combining exacting workmanship in symmetry and polish with the authenticity of untreated Burmese jade. Its dimensions and dome profile also make it versatile for bespoke ring commissions and pendant designs where a substantial presence is required without overwhelming the setting. When evaluating investment quality, consider provenance, lack of enhancement, and the harmonious match of cutting proportions to the materials optical properties, all of which are present in this fine example from The Natural Gemstone Company.
