11.08 Ct. Green Prasiolite from Brazil

This is a rare, one of a kind, transparent 11.08 carat princess shape green prasiolite that arrives to you as a singular expression of elegance and restraint, presented exclusively by The Natural Gemstone Company. Cut in a precise princess cut, and measuring 12.73 by 11.94 by 10.45 mm, this gem has been finished to an excellent polish and shows an intense color intensity that reads as a pure, refined green under both natural and artificial lighting. Clarity is graded very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which contributes to a lively, unobstructed window into the gem, while the controlled heat treated enhancement from Brazil has stabilized and intensified the hue without diminishing the stone's natural charm. Pieces like this do not come frequently, and this single specimen is aimed at collectors and connoisseurs who desire a focused statement piece that carries provenance, superb craftsmanship, and the quiet confidence of limited availability.

When considering reflective qualities, this prasiolite offers a crystalline, mirror like reflection that differs pleasingly from other green gem options. Unlike emerald and other beryl family stones, which often show more diffuse light return due to internal characteristics and inclusions, this prasiolite returns crisp, architectural facet reflections thanks to its high transparency and the precision of the princess cut, producing a hall of mirrors effect that accentuates its stepped pavilion and sharp corners. Compared to peridot, which tends to demonstrate a slightly oily luster and higher birefringence, this green prasiolite displays a more restrained, vitreous brilliance with cleaner flashes and less color scattering, offering a cooler, more modern green. Versus other quartz based greens and heated amethyst derivatives, this particular gem stands out for its intense color intensity and exceptional polish, producing larger, more uniform flashes rather than the small, scattered scintillation seen in lower clarity pieces. For those seeking the exclusivity of a large, well proportioned green stone with architectural sparkle and dependable light return, this 11.08 carat princess prasiolite from Brazil is a rare opportunity to own a jewel that reads as both contemplative and immediately striking.
