1.59 Ct. Peridot from Pakistan

This beautiful transparent 1.59 carat cushion shape green peridot from Pakistan carries a sense of heritage that reaches back through centuries of gemstone tradition, a gem that has been treasured by many cultures for its luminous green hue and association with renewal and protection. The stone measures 6.63 x 6.29 x 5.17 mm, and its mixed brilliant cut is engineered to balance sparkling fire with a broad, classic pavilion that flatters the cushion silhouette. With an intense color intensity and a clarity grade described as very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, this peridot presents an eye catching purity that reads as almost flawless to most observers, enhanced by an excellent polish that allows light to move across the facets with graceful ease. This gem is entirely natural, no enhancement, and its origin in the rich deposits of Pakistan gives it a provenance that will appeal to buyers who value authenticity and the storied journey of fine gemstones, a story we are proud to present at The Natural Gemstone Company.

Beyond its historical and aesthetic appeal, this peridot is also a practical choice for daily wear when set thoughtfully, making it ideal for classic rings, pendants, and heirloom pieces intended for regular use. Peridot ranks approximately 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, which means it resists scratches from many common materials and performs well in jewelry that sees frequent wear, provided routine precautions are observed. The cushion shape and mixed brilliant cut protect the table and crown while promoting brilliance, and the very slightly included clarity means the gem maintains strong structural integrity and visual charm. Because this stone is unenhanced, its vibrant green is wholly natural, and the excellent polish ensures minimal surface irregularities, both qualities that increase longevity in wearable settings. For daily wear recommendations, we suggest secure bezel or prong settings that shelter the girdle, occasional gentle cleaning with warm soapy water, and avoiding harsh chemicals and extreme temperature shock. As a piece of wearable history, this peridot offers enduring beauty and reliability, a gem that honors tradition while fitting seamlessly into modern life, and it is offered with the assurance of provenance and expertise from The Natural Gemstone Company.
