2.50 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Yellowish Green Peridot Pair from Burma (Myanmar)

This exquisite matched pair of peridots from The Natural Gemstone Company presents a rare combination of uniformity, color intensity, and fine cutting that sets them apart from ordinary market specimens, each weighing 1.25 carats, pear shape yellowish green, with dimensions of 8.88 x 5.92 x 3.85 millimeters and 8.92 x 5.90 x 4.05 millimeters, mixed brilliant cut, clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish, untreated and with no enhancement, originating from Burma Myanmar. The transparency and vivid yellowish green tone are consistent across both stones, delivering an immediate visual harmony that is ideal for matched earrings or a pair of drop pendants. The mixed brilliant cut multiplies internal reflections, offering lively scintillation and a balanced profile where the elongated pear silhouette flatters a variety of settings and face shapes. Buyers who compare gems will notice how these peridots combine symmetrical proportions with a fine polish, qualities that are frequently compromised in mass market offerings where size, cut, or color saturation may vary between stones.

Compared to other peridots and comparable colored gemstones on the market, this pair stands out for provenance, natural state, and visual performance. Burmese peridots are highly sought after for their clean, bright tones and strong saturation, and unlike many commercial stones that undergo heat or other enhancements to boost color, these gems are untouched, preserving their natural character and long term value. In many retail assortments, peridots are sold with uneven matching or with visible cloudiness when examined closely, but these stones are evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, meaning that they read as essentially eye clean for most wearers while retaining internal life that contributes to their brilliance. The mixed brilliant facet arrangement enhances fire and sparkle, offering a fresh, lively alternative to simpler step cuts that can sometimes look flat in comparison. For designers and collectors seeking authentic materials, these matched pears offer a better balance of color, clarity, and cut than typical commercial pairs, making them an intelligent choice for pieces intended to shine in both everyday wear and special occasions.

Durability considerations for daily wear are essential, and these peridots perform very well when set and maintained correctly, with a Mohs hardness in the 6.5 to 7 range, which provides reasonable resistance to everyday scratching while still requiring mindful handling compared to harder stones like sapphire and diamond. The combination of excellent polish and a robust mixed brilliant cut helps protect facets from wear, and when mounted in protective settings such as bezel, halo, or well engineered prongs, these gems are suited to long term daily use. Care instructions are straightforward, and following them will maximize longevity, avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and extreme temperature changes, remove jewelry during high impact activities, clean gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and have settings inspected periodically by a qualified jeweler. When compared with softer or more fragile alternatives, and with the added advantage of being untreated and Burma sourced, this pair represents a durable choice that maintains its beauty over time with sensible care. The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind the quality and provenance of these peridots, recommending protective mounting and routine maintenance to ensure these luminous yellowish green pears remain a lasting and luminous focal point in any jewelry collection.
