3.99 Ct. Yellowish Green Peridot from Pakistan

From the green slopes of northern Pakistan to the slow thoughtful hands of an experienced cutter, this peridot carries a story that begins in the earth and arrives at you with purpose. Born from volcanic origin over millions of years, this transparent yellowish green peridot weighs 3.99 carat and was discovered in a region where families have worked gemstone deposits for generations. At The Natural Gemstone Company we build direct relationships with local mining communities to ensure that every stone we offer comes with respect for both people and place. The miners who recovered this gem follow small scale practices that reduce landscape disruption when compared with industrial excavation. Revenue flows back into village projects and fair compensation is central to the sourcing model, so when you choose this peridot you are choosing a gem that supports livelihoods and honors the communities that have stewarded these deposits for centuries.

The transformation from rough to refined gem is where the stone’s character comes alive. Cut as a cushion shape with a mixed brilliant cut, this peridot measures 10.47 x 8.56 x 5.96 mm and displays an intense color intensity that glows with life. The cutter took care to preserve the gem’s clarity and color, leaving it transparent and lively while optimizing facets to showcase scintillation and depth. Its clarity grade is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means modest natural inclusions lend authenticity without detracting from brilliance. The polish is excellent, revealing crisp facet junctions and clean reflections across the table. There has been no enhancement to this stone, no heating or treatment, so what you see is natural color and structure, straight from the earth and carefully honed by human skill. The mixed brilliant geometry gives a modern flash while the cushion outline offers a classic silhouette, making this peridot versatile for thoughtful design choices.

For the conscious collector this peridot is an invitation to build a collection that reflects values as well as beauty. Its size and lively yellowish green hue make it a compelling choice for a centerpiece ring, an elegant pendant, or a bespoke pair of earrings that will age gracefully with wear. Because it is natural and untreated, this gem gains narrative value with every story you attach to it, whether a milestone, a commitment to ethical sourcing, or a statement of personal style. Caring for the stone is simple, use mild soap and a soft brush, avoid harsh chemicals and extreme temperature shocks, and have settings inspected periodically to maintain security and sparkle. At The Natural Gemstone Company we can provide detailed provenance information and are happy to arrange independent verification on request, so you can feel confident in the origin and authenticity of your purchase. This peridot is more than a beautiful object, it is a connection to a landscape, a people, and the patient craft that turns raw earth into wearable light.
