1.47 Ct. Peridot from Pakistan

This peridot begins its journey high in the rugged mountains of northern Pakistan, where pockets of olivine crystallize slowly under the earth, capturing sunlight and warmth in each mineral grain. Mined by small teams of local prospectors who know the folds and fractures of their landscape by memory, the rough stones are chosen for purity and color, then gently brought into the light to be examined. At The Natural Gemstone Company we work closely with these communities to trace each gem from its source, honoring the human hands and the ancient geology that give rise to such a rare green fire. This heart shape peridot carries that origin story in every facet, a living fragment of a distant mountain valley, unenhanced and honest in its natural condition.

Carved into a heart that measures 7.04 by 7.03 by 4.46 millimeters, weighing 1.47 carats, this yellowish green peridot is a statement of refined presence. The cutter chose a mixed brilliant cut to balance scintillation and depth, allowing broad flashes of light across the crown while preserving a lively inner brilliance. Its color intensity reads as medium and intense enough to command attention without overwhelming, a yellowish green that shifts subtly with movement and light. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included at eye level, which for you means the stone appears exceptionally clean to the naked eye, the few tiny natural inclusions serving only as a reminder of the gem s journey rather than detracting from its beauty. The polish is excellent, the facets crisp and reflective, so every angle reveals the stone s heart shaped design with precision and warmth.

The crafting story of this peridot is a careful conversation between rough material and master cutter, a process that transforms a shard of earth into a centerpiece of personal adornment. The cutter worked the pavilion and crown to a mixed brilliant arrangement, optimizing the path of light through the gem so that its medium intense hue registers as both lively and sophisticated. At 7.04 by 7.03 millimeters, the heart is large enough to read as a statement on a finger or pendant, yet intimate enough to sit comfortably as a daily symbol. Because the clarity is so strong, you do not need a heavy setting to mask imperfections, which opens design possibilities that showcase the stone itself, settings that float the heart above the metal, or delicate halos and bezels that accentuate its shape while letting light reach and return from its facets. The lack of enhancement means that what you see is the genuine appearance of a natural Pakistani peridot, its tone and saturation fixed by the forces that formed it, and preserved by careful cutting and polishing.

Owning this peridot is to wear a narrative that connects geology, craft, and personal meaning, a jewel that speaks of protection, renewal, and the warmth of natural green light. Peridot has been treasured across cultures for millennia, admired by ancient seafarers and kings for its verdant glow, and this particular stone brings that legacy into the modern world with a clarity and size that encourages bold design choices. If you are seeking a central gem for a statement ring, a singular pendant that draws the eye, or an heirloom piece that will carry a story through generations, this heart shape peridot provides a striking and honest option. At The Natural Gemstone Company we present it as both a gem and a story, ready to be set by your jeweler into a piece that will become an emblem of your taste and a reminder of the distant mountains where the journey began.
