0.52 Ct. Peridot from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

You are searching for a gemstone that stops conversation, that fulfills the desire for something rare yet wearable, that carries both meaning and everyday beauty. If your quest is for the perfect engagement center that feels personal rather than typical, or for a collector piece that balances clarity and color with fine craftsmanship, this 0.52 carat green peridot is designed to answer that call. From The Natural Gemstone Company we offer this transparent peridot in an elegant emerald cut, with precise dimensions of 6.09 x 4.10 x 2.62 mm, a medium intense green color, and an excellent polish that catches the eye without demanding pretension. The weight and proportions make it ideal for a delicate solitaire ring, a refined pendant, or a bespoke design where the stone must read as both precious and wearable. The gem speaks to those who want an alternative to more ubiquitous choices, a gem that will be noticed for its color and calm confidence, rather than for mimicking what everyone else chooses.

The emerald cut is an especially fitting shape for this peridot because it emphasizes color and clarity, a quality that matters to anyone seeking a stone that reads beautifully under natural light. Graded as very slightly included when observed at eye level, the clarity of this peridot allows its inner green to shine through with minimal distraction. The excellent polish enhances the gem surfaces so that light moves smoothly across the facets, giving broad flashes and elegant stepwise reflections that are refined rather than noisy. Importantly, this peridot is untreated, with no enhancement, and it hails from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for producing clean, vibrantly colored material. The combination of natural color, transparent body, and a thoughtful emerald cut means the gem will present a steady, pleasing green in jewelry, rather than a scattered or washed appearance.

When comparing brilliance to more common gemstones, this peridot stands apart in character rather than in raw fire. It will not produce the intense spectral fire of a diamond, nor the deep saturated depth of a high color sapphire, yet those differences are why collectors and thoughtful buyers choose peridot. The peridot offers a luminous, luminous green that captures light in broad, elegant flashes, and it reads as a natural, fresh color that few other gems can duplicate. Compared to emeralds, which often have more internal features and commonly receive stabilization treatments, this peridot presents a cleaner window into its color and light play, without the need for enhancement. Against other green gems such as tsavorite or green sapphire, peridot’s signature yellowish lime tone is unique, it makes statement pieces immediately recognizable, and the emerald cut amplifies that tone in an even, controlled manner. The overall visual effect is one of clarity, lively sheen, and a vivid green personality that complements skin tones and design settings without overpowering them.

If your goal is to find a rare but wearable center stone that communicates taste and individuality, this peridot resolves that search. The Natural Gemstone Company offers this gem ready for a bespoke setting that will showcase its emerald cut lines and natural green glow, and our experience with sourcing assures you that this piece is naturally formed, responsibly acquired, and precisely finished. For engagement designs where uniqueness matters, for collectors who value unenhanced stones with consistent color, and for designers seeking a balanced, luminous green focal point, this peridot is a perfect solution. Choosing this gem means your quest ends with a stone that is both a conversation starter and a lifelong companion, a natural treasure that will age beautifully as part of a meaningful design.
