1.46 Ct. Peridot from Pakistan

This exceptional peridot offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a transparent, 1.46 carat heart shape yellowish green gemstone, with precise dimensions of 7.05 x 7.09 x 4.56 mm, presented in a mixed brilliant cut. The heart silhouette is executed with careful symmetry and proportion, creating an immediate visual appeal that reads as both romantic and contemporary. Under natural lighting this peridot displays an intense color intensity that captures the eye, while maintaining a fresh yellowish green tone that is classic for high quality peridot material. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize both face up brilliance and depth of color, allowing the pavilion facets to return light in a lively, scintillating display, while the crown facets disperse flashes that enliven the stone with movement and vivacity. For buyers seeking a gem that reads as bright and lively, yet refined and wearable every day, this specimen represents an outstanding balance of size, saturation, and cut quality.

From a grading perspective this peridot is especially notable for its clarity and finish. It is graded as eye clean when evaluated at eye level, meaning no inclusions are visible to the unaided eye under normal viewing conditions, which enhances the gem's transparency and overall visual impact. The polish is described as excellent, indicating facet junctions are smooth and reflective, contributing to strong light return and crisp facet contrast. The mixed brilliant facet arrangement further complements the polish and symmetry so that light performance is optimal across a variety of lighting environments. Importantly this stone has undergone no enhancement. Its color and clarity are natural, straight from the gem source, which in this case is Pakistan. Pakistani peridot is respected in the trade for producing stones with lively green tones and good transparency, and provenance from Pakistan adds provenance value for collectors and designers who favor well documented origins.

This peridot is especially well suited for custom jewelry because of its heart shape and the practical proportions of 7.05 x 7.09 x 4.56 mm at 1.46 carat weight. The near equal width and length create a pleasing on finger appearance, while the 4.56 mm depth provides enough pavilion for secure setting without excessive bulk, enabling a versatile range of design options. The heart shape reads as a focused design element in engagement rings, pendants, and statement earrings, allowing jewelers to craft a bespoke piece that emphasizes sentiment and style. Designers can confidently use claw or prong settings to showcase the faceting and allow maximum light through the crown, or choose a delicate bezel to protect the girdle while maintaining a modern silhouette. The mixed brilliant cut also makes the stone responsive to halo settings, where small accent diamonds or gemstones can be used to amplify sparkle and perceived size, or to create seasonal color combinations that play against the yellowish green hue. The size and shape make this gem especially adaptable to small to medium scale settings, giving custom jewelers the freedom to balance metal weight and accent stones for a final piece that is both comfortable and striking.

For the educated buyer and the discerning custom jeweler, the value proposition of this peridot is clear. The combination of eye clean clarity, intense natural color, excellent polish, no enhancement, and documented origin from Pakistan provides assurance of quality and authenticity. When commissioning a custom piece from The Natural Gemstone Company, clients receive a gem that is already well prepared for setting, reducing the need for additional cutting or reworking. The dimensions and heart shape simplify the design process, allowing accurate CAD renders and precise mounting plans, which helps control production timelines and costs. Peridot is durable enough for everyday wear with a hardness suitable for rings and pendants, provided standard care is observed, including avoiding hard knocks and exposure to harsh chemicals. For collectors or couples seeking a meaningful engagement or anniversary gem, this stone offers a rare blend of romance, performance, and natural origin.
