5.51 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Peridot Pair from Burma (Myanmar)

These two Burmese peridots arrive as a matched pair that celebrates both natural beauty and precise craftsmanship, perfect for someone who values tradition and wishes to begin an enduring family story. The stones weigh 2.67 carats and 2.84 carats respectively, their oval shapes offering classic proportions that flatter many settings. The larger gem measures 10.12 x 8.01 x 5.21 millimeters, the companion measures 10.07 x 8.00 x 5.17 millimeters, and both are cut as mixed brilliant ovals which balance scintillation and color saturation with a refined silhouette. At eye level these gems are graded as very very slightly included, their transparency allowing clean passage of light and presenting a medium intense yellowish green that is both vibrant and elegant. An excellent polish enhances each facet plane, while a careful heat treatment has been applied to stabilize and deepen the tone without compromising the natural character that collectors cherish, and these details are presented with pride by The Natural Gemstone Company.

Peridot carries a long and storied history that makes it an especially meaningful choice for pieces intended to be loved across generations. Known for its luminous green hues, peridot has been treasured since antiquity, and Burmese material is particularly prized for its clarity and lively color, qualities that have been sought after by gem collectors and jewelers for centuries. The mixed brilliant cut chosen for these stones reflects a reverence for classical cutting ideals, harnessing light as a legacy of craftsmanship that mirrors the way heirlooms catch and keep the light of memory. When set into refined jewelry, these peridots will not only display their unique hue, but will also carry forward the whisper of ancient mines and the hands that shaped them, connecting each wearer to a lineage of taste, care, and continuity.

Building a family legacy begins with thoughtful choices and durable beauties that invite use, repair, reinterpretation, and tender stories. These peridots are ideal as the core elements of a future heirloom, offering versatility for multiple generations of wear. Paired as they are, the stones lend themselves to matched earrings that can be passed from parent to child, to a pair of cufflinks complemented by a signet set, or to an engagement and anniversary set that ties two lives and future kin together. One stone can anchor a solitaire ring for daily wear, while its near twin may become a pendant reserved for milestone celebrations, or both may be joined in a bespoke design that becomes the family crest in gem form. Their medium intense color ensures they will remain fashionable without betraying fleeting trends, and their very very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level means they will show a lively presence while maintaining the authenticity that connoisseurs value. With simple, conscientious care and occasional professional inspection, these stones will endure, refracting not only light but also decades of memories.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we appreciate the importance of provenance, of responsible sourcing, and of the stories that make a gem truly priceless.

We invite you to discuss design options, metal choices, and inscription possibilities with our team, so each decision resonates with intention and care.
