4.72 Ct. Yellowish Green Peridot from Pakistan

The story of this peridot begins deep beneath the rugged peaks of northern Pakistan, where pockets of olivine crystals have been coaxed to the surface by ancient geological forces. Miners working in those high valleys have long known how to read the land, and miners with generations of experience spotted a crystal that glowed with a yellowish green light so pure it seemed to hold sunlight inside it. From its first moment as a rough crystal this peridot carried an energy and a color that linked it to both the Earth and to human celebration. Ancient cultures valued this stone as a token of light and protection, and modern collectors still feel that same quiet reverence when they hold a well chosen peridot. This particular crystal was unearthed with respect for the region, sorted by hand at the source, and prepared for the journey to artisans who would reveal its true potential.

The transformation from rough crystal to a finished gem was guided by a lapidary eye that understood how to balance weight and brilliance. The result is an elegant oval shape weighing 4.72 carat, with dimensions of 11.19 x 9.13 x 6.36 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style that maximizes the internal fire and scintillation of the stone. The mixed brilliant cut combines the depth and life of a traditional brilliant facet arrangement with the elongated, graceful silhouette of an oval, allowing light to enter in a wide range of angles and return to the eye as flashes of lively brilliance. Carefully maintained symmetry and an excellent polish ensure that every facet edge plays its role, creating a visual performance that feels both animated and refined. At eye level the clarity is graded as eye clean, which means your gaze meets nothing to interrupt the intense color and sparkle. This peridot shows intense color intensity, a vivid yellowish green that sits between the warmth of summer fields and the freshness of new leaves, and it carries its color without any enhancement, a pure statement from nature.

The Natural Gemstone Company sources and presents gemstones with provenance and care, and this peridot arrives as a narrative piece, ready to anchor a collection or to become a family heirloom. The mixed brilliant cut makes it a natural centerpiece, because it commands attention without demanding ornate surroundings.

The oval silhouette flatters many finger shapes, and the balance between face up size and depth ensures presence when viewed both nearby and across a room. Collectors will appreciate the way the light travels through the gem, producing flashes that shift as the stone moves, and designers will value the clean pavilion and the consistent polish which make the gem straightforward to set with confidence.
