When you are searching for a gemstone that will end your quest for something truly exceptional, this transparent 2.89 carat emerald cut green peridot answers that call with confidence. Whether you are designing the perfect engagement ring that must stand apart, or adding a rare and vivid stone to a collector s cabinet, this gem meets those needs with poise. Its elegant emerald cut shape, measuring 9.02 x 6.91 x 5.45 mm, offers classical lines that flatter every setting, from solitaire to halo, from vintage to modern. The dimensions give a commanding presence on the finger, while remaining refined enough to be paired with delicate metal work. At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that you want both beauty and substance, clarity as well as color, and this peridot delivers both. Its intense color intensity reads as a lively, saturated green, a tone that captures attention without overwhelming, lending warmth and energy to any jewelry piece it inhabits. The stone is transparent and well proportioned, qualities that make it an ideal choice for a centerpiece that will look spectacular in photographs and in person.

The way this peridot sparkles is rooted in the precision of its emerald cut and the careful craftsmanship that produced its facets and proportions. Emerald cut stones are known for their step cut facets, which create broad flash patterns and elegant reflections, and this peridot has been cut to maximize those effects. The broad table and stepped crown work together to channel light into even, luminous planes, and the pavilion angles return that light with a clarity and consistency that creates a whisper of sparkle that is both refined and unmistakable. Unlike brilliant cuts that scatter light into many tiny scintillations, the emerald cut produces larger, more sophisticated flashes that show off the gem s color and internal character with dignity. Because this stone is evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, the clarity allows light to pass through freely, enhancing its internal glow without distracting inclusions. The excellent polish further sharpens each facet edge, increasing contrast between light and shadow, which in turn accentuates the peridot s lively glow. The result is a sparkle that is both deep and elegant, a quality that collectors and discerning buyers consistently seek.

Color and origin are central to the appeal of any peridot, and this gem s provenance from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, lends an extra layer of desirability. Sri Lankan peridots are celebrated for their vivid, clean hues, and this stone s intense green sits squarely in that tradition. Heat treated to stabilize and enhance its natural tone, the gem retains a feeling of authenticity, because the treatment is common, minimal, and intended to reveal the truest expression of the material. The intense color intensity combined with the stone s transparency means that the hue reads vividly from every angle, providing a consistent and captivating presence in any light. At 2.89 carats, the peridot is large enough to become a signature piece, yet the emerald cut s elongated form keeps the overall silhouette elegant on the hand. You will appreciate the balance between weight and wearability, the way the gem sits in a bezel or prong setting, and the way the color plays against different metals. The combination of size, cut, origin, and finish makes this a rare find that satisfies both emotional and practical criteria for special purchases.
