5.73 Ct. Bluish Green Prasiolite from Brazil

This prasiolite is a transparent oval of 5.73 carats, with dimensions of 12.89 x 10.58 x 7.45 mm, faceted in a mixed brilliant cutting style to optimize fire and return of light. The tone is a bluish green with intense color saturation, and the gem exhibits excellent polish that enhances surface luster and facet definition. Clarity has been evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included, making the stone appear effectively eye clean while retaining natural internal character under magnification. The cutting proportions and the mixed brilliant pavilion work together to balance scintillation and broad flashes of color, which makes this piece well suited for a prominent ring center or a refined pendant setting. Enhancement is limited to controlled heat treatment, a standard and stable process for prasiolite that refines hue while preserving durability and transparency. Photographs and hand presentation indicate comfortable scale on finger, where the size and depth create a compelling presence without compromising wearability.

The origin of this prasiolite is Brazil, a region renowned for producing high quality quartz varieties and for a long tradition of expert lapidary work. Brazilian provenance adds value through consistent material quality, well documented mining practices, and a strong history of careful cutting that preserves yield and optical performance. For collectors and designers the Brazilian source also carries a reputational benefit, as many of the finest prasiolites and green quartz gems available on the market derive from Brazilian localities where geological conditions favor clean, well crystallized specimens. At The Natural Gemstone Company we document origin and treatment to support informed selection, and we present each gem with clear, factual specifications so that the practical and intrinsic qualities are transparent. This prasiolite combines favorable weight and dimensions, intense and appealing bluish green color, professional mixed brilliant faceting, and stable heat treatment, making it a technically sound choice for fine jewelry applications where origin, craftsmanship, and consistent optical performance are prioritized.
