0.45 Ct. Yellowish Green Peridot from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite transparent peridot from The Natural Gemstone Company weighs 0.45 carat, with an elegant oval outline measuring 6.04 x 4.06 x 2.63 mm, faceted in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize scintillation and life. Its yellowish green hue registers as intense color intensity, while a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level means the stone reads clean to the naked eye, offering a bright, lively appearance without the common cloudiness seen in lower grade material. The excellent polish on each facet ensures superior light return, so this modestly sized gem performs with the brilliance of larger stones. Unlike many market examples that are heat treated, fracture filled, or display muted tones, this peridot is natural and untreated, no enhancement, which preserves its true color and structure and gives buyers confidence in both beauty and long term value.

Origin matters, and this peridot’s provenance from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, adds meaningful premium and distinction compared with more common sources. Sri Lanka has a centuries long reputation for producing exceptionally clean, color saturated gem material and for skilled lapidary work, and provenance from Ceylon communicates both rarity and a history of trusted cutting practices. In the marketplace, that translates to stronger resale potential and collector interest when compared to anonymous or enhanced material. When stacked against other peridots of similar weight, the combination of intense color, very slightly included clarity, mixed brilliant cut, and no enhancement makes this gem stand out as a smarter value purchase. Its dimensions and oval shape make it ideal as a refined center stone for a delicate ring, a bright solitaire pendant, or a matched pair for bespoke earrings, and because of its lively face up color the stone often reads larger in appearance than its 0.45 carat weight might suggest. For buyers seeking a natural, well cut peridot with verifiable origin and superior visual performance, The Natural Gemstone Company offers this Ceylon peridot as a distinctive choice that balances rarity, quality, and value.
