1.30 Ct. Green (Lime Green) Peridot from Pakistan

From the high valleys of Pakistan where rugged mountains meet clear skies, this lime green peridot began its life as a pocket of molten earth cooling slowly over millennia, emerging as a gem that carries the landscape within its hue. Miners with generations of local knowledge found it in narrow seams, cleaned it by hand, and passed it along to cutters who listened to the stone, seeking to reveal its inner light. The story of this peridot is one of place and people, a connection between the mineral wealth of Pakistan and the careful human craft that honors it. At The Natural Gemstone Company we trace each step, from the moment the crystal is unearthed to the polishing wheel, believing that transparency in origin adds meaning to every setting.

Transformed by expert hands into a transparent, oval shape weighing 1.30 carat, this gem measures 8.06 x 5.61 x 4.29 mm, and features a mixed brilliant cut that balances table sparkle with pavilion fire. Its intense lime green color and very slightly included clarity as evaluated at eye level make it a lively, wearable stone that retains natural character without compromising brilliance. With no enhancement and an excellent polish, the gem sits ready for custom jewelry, ideal for solitaire rings where the 8.06 by 5.61 mm oval presents a flattering elongation on the finger, and for pendants or bespoke earrings where symmetrical proportions and mixed brilliant faceting maximize light return. The moderate depth of 4.29 mm allows secure bezel or prong settings without sacrificing brightness, making design choices broad and confident. Choosing this peridot means selecting a gem with a story that moves from mountain pocket to artisan’s bench, a jewel that brings together cultural heritage and contemporary design, curated and presented by The Natural Gemstone Company.
