2.69 Ct. Peridot from Burma (Myanmar)

When you are searching for a single stone that can both anchor an engagement ring and stand alone as a collector's prize, this 2.69 carat emerald cut green peridot from Burma Myanmar answers that need with clarity and confidence. The proportions at 9.07 by 7.03 by 5.11 mm give this gem a commanding presence on the hand or in a display case, while the classic emerald cut emphasizes the gem"s transparent nature and produces crisp step reflections, this clarity allows light to travel through the pavilion and reveal the peridot"s true heart. The clarity grade is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the face up appearance is exceptionally clean and lively, the medium intense color intensity offers a rich, luminous green that reads as both sophisticated and vivacious, and the excellent polish ensures every facet edge returns light with a bright, refined finish. The stone has been heat treated, a responsible enhancement that stabilizes and enhances the hue, delivering a gem that is ready to be set or added to a curated collection.

The hue and tone of this Burmese peridot place it in a refined position among the world"s most admired green gems, it leans toward a vivid grassy green with a golden lime undertone, brighter and fresher than many olive dominated peridots, and it carries a saturation that reads both lively and elegant. Compared to San Carlos Arizona peridots, which often show a slightly deeper olive leaning and sometimes a brownish overtone, this Burmese example is cleaner in hue and more luminous, and that difference matters when you want a stone that reads bright in a variety of metal settings and in different light. Compared to Zabargad Island peridots, which are famed for their pure green intensity, the Burmese gem offers a more modern citrus influenced green that feels youthful and versatile, while against Colombian emeralds the tone here is distinctly lighter and more yellow green, offering a different design language for those who love green but seek something less classical and more distinctive. Compare its hue and tone to gemstones from other famous locations and you will see that this peridot occupies a sweet spot between vividness and wearable familiarity, making it uniquely suited for both statement rings and elegant collector displays.

If you are imagining this gem in a bespoke ring, an emerald cut like this rewards careful design choices, it looks superb in both open prong settings that allow maximum light entry and in low bezel settings that protect the corners while preserving its step facet elegance. For metal choices, warm yellow gold will amplify the golden undertone and produce a vintage inspired glow, white gold or platinum will give the color a crisp, modern contrast, while rose gold will create an unexpected, soft romantic palette. For collectors, its Burmese origin and the stone"s balanced medium intense saturation make it a noteworthy acquisition, the heat treatment is disclosed and stable, and the very slightly included clarity grade at eye level preserves the gem"s face up beauty while maintaining the natural character that serious collectors prize. At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that your search for the perfect green can be exacting, whether you are seeking the ideal engagement center or a rare specimen to elevate a collection, and this 2.69 carat, 9.07 by 7.03 by 5.11 mm emerald cut peridot from Burma Myanmar brings together transparent life, measured intensity, and fine cutting to fulfill that search.
