1.51 Ct. Peridot from Pakistan

This 1.51 carat cushion shaped green peridot is a rare example of natural beauty and technical skill combined, and it arrives to you from Pakistan, a region known for producing peridots with rich, true green hues. The gem measures 7.08 x 5.52 x 5.21 mm, and features a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes light return, giving the stone a lively presence in any jewelry setting. Its color intensity is described as intense, a tone and saturation that immediately captures the eye without appearing artificial, and its clarity grade is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the stone remains transparent and vibrant to most observers. The polish is excellent, which enhances the peridot s natural sparkle and gives the surface a mirror like finish that complements the gem s internal liveliness. Importantly, this peridot is unenhanced, meaning you are buying a natural, untreated stone, and The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind that authenticity in every gem we offer.

Compared to other green gemstones on the market, this peridot holds distinct advantages in both visual appeal and value. Emeralds can show deep green color, but they often come with heavy inclusions and required enhancements, which affects durability and long term value. Tsavorite garnets and demantoid garnets offer exceptional greens, but they are significantly rarer and carry a much higher price. This cushion peridot sits in a sweet spot where you get a true, intense green that reads as lively and fresh, paired with a level of clarity that allows the color to sing without obstruction. The mixed brilliant cut further separates this gem from many mass market peridots, where cuts often prioritize weight retention over brilliance. Here, the faceting pattern is designed to capture and reflect light, producing scintillation and flash that compete with more expensive stones. For customers who want a striking green that stands out without the premium price of rarer species, this peridot represents an exceptional choice.

In jewelry, color, cut, and clarity must work together to create a focal point that complements the setting, and this peridot is particularly versatile in that regard. The cushion shape translates beautifully to rings, pendants, and earrings, offering a classic silhouette that modern designers favor for its flattering proportions. The stone s intense green will stand out against warm metals like yellow gold and rose gold, where the contrast creates a vivid, energetic look. It will also present a clean, contemporary profile in white gold and platinum settings, where the cool metal allows the gem s green to appear crisp and jewel like. Because of the mixed brilliant cut and the gem s excellent polish, it will display lively internal reflection under both natural and artificial lighting, making it a showstopping center for engagement rings or a luxurious accent in custom heirloom pieces. For designers and customers balancing aesthetics with practicality, this peridot s transparency and polished finish reduce the need for overly intricate settings to hide flaws, allowing clean, elegant designs to showcase the stone itself.
