1.92 Ct. Brownish Green Peridot from Burma (Myanmar)

This specimen is a transparent 1.92 carat marquise peridot, dimensions 12.01 by 6.01 by 3.90 millimeters, presenting a length to width ratio of approximately 2.0 and an overall depth percentage near 43 percent. The cutter employed a mixed brilliant faceting scheme, combining a brilliant-cut crown with pavilion facets optimized to enhance return of light along the elongated axis, and the polish is graded excellent. These decisions produce a large face-up appearance for the given carat weight and a crisp, lively pavilion scintillation with minimized windowing. Clarity is graded very slightly included at eye level, indicating only minor internal features that do not disrupt transparency or brightness under normal viewing, and the stone is unenhanced, preserving natural chromophore balance. Color reads as brownish green with vivid intensity, a tone and saturation that retain strong bodycolor across viewing angles while revealing subtle olive undertones in oblique light, attributes consistent with high-quality Burmese peridot material.

When compared to historically notable gems, this peridot shares qualities prized in several famous stones while retaining its own distinct profile. Its vivid olive-green recalls the saturated greens of historic island peridots prized in classical collections, yet the clarity and mixed brilliant cutting deliver a brilliance more akin to the refined faceting seen on celebrated gemstone jewels of the 18th and 19th centuries. Origin from Burma places it among stones associated with exceptional chromatic intensity, analogous in provenance prestige to the well-known Burmese gems admired for pure, vivid color. Unlike heavily included or heat-treated material, this unenhanced peridot offers collectors and designers an authentic natural color and structural integrity, giving it a unique value proposition: the combination of a large face-up marquise outline, precise mixed brilliant faceting, excellent polish, and Burmese origin. The Natural Gemstone Company presents this gem as an ideal center stone for bespoke settings where measured proportion, optical performance, and natural color authenticity are required.
