1.10 Ct. Yellowish Green Peridot from Pakistan

This transparent peridot weighs 1.10 carat and presents a classic oval shape with precise measurements of 6.66 x 5.46 x 4.64 mm. The stone displays a yellowish green hue with medium color intensity, a mixed brilliant cut that balances faceted fire and overall brilliance, and an excellent polish that produces crisp reflections across the table and crown. Clarity is graded as slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a condition that is consistent with natural peridot specimens and that contributes subtle internal character without compromising the gems appeal when set. The piece is unenhanced, with no treatments performed, and it originates from Pakistan, a source known for producing peridot with distinct tonalities and dependable crystalline quality.

Rarity in both size and color is an important attribute of this peridot when considered against similar examples on the market. Peridots of around one carat in clean, transparent material are comparatively uncommon within material from secondary deposits, and the specific yellowish green tone exhibited here sits between the more common lime greens and the deeper olive greens that collectors often encounter. This intermediate hue with medium saturation is less frequently available at this size in gem quality that maintains transparent clarity and an excellent polish. The mixed brilliant cut further enhances the stone by maximizing light return for this particular color, creating an appearance that reads more lively and vivid than many peridots of comparable weight and shape. For those assembling a collection or designing a piece where color nuance and presence are essential, this example stands apart from more typical offers, which either fall into lower weight ranges or display colors that skew more strongly to one end of the spectrum.

From a gemological and practical perspective this peridot is notable for its combination of visual purity and usable dimensions. The transparency allows light to traverse the pavilion and crown without significant diffusion, promoting a balanced display of the yellowish green hue across different lighting conditions. The slightly included clarity grade, assessed at eye level, indicates minor internal features that are visible under close inspection yet do not dominate the appearance, and they serve as evidence of the stones natural origin. The excellent polish and mixed brilliant faceting are tailored to this proportions profile, improving brilliance and providing a refined surface that responds well to metal settings. Given peridots typical hardness range on the Mohs scale, careful design and protective settings are recommended for rings intended for daily wear, while pendants and earrings are ideal applications where the gem can be enjoyed with reduced exposure to abrasion.

The Natural Gemstone Company offers this peridot as part of a curated selection that emphasizes provenance, natural state, and exacting finish. The Pakistani origin is documented and contributes to the stones character within the broader context of peridot sources, since regional crystallography and trace element chemistry influence hue and saturation in ways that are meaningful to connoisseurs and designers. Because this gemstone has received no enhancement, its color and clarity are inherent properties rather than the result of treatment, and that authenticity is an important consideration for those seeking natural material with distinct and verifiable attributes. In terms of practical information, the stone is suitable for custom fine jewelry that values a unique color profile and a size that is substantial without being ostentatious.
