This listing describes a single, transparent, round prasiolite presented by The Natural Gemstone Company, weighing 5.84 carats, and measuring 11.86 x 11.65 x 7.99 mm. The stone is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, which combines precision pavilion faceting with a crown geometry that promotes both depth and surface brilliance. The body color is a yellowish green with medium color intensity, offering a balanced saturation that reads as lively in direct light and nuanced in softer illumination. The cut dimensions reflect a substantial table and crown profile relative to the overall diameter, producing a pleasing play of light and a stable visual presence when set. The polish is excellent, yielding smooth facet junctions and minimal surface disturbance, and the stone is transparent with high light transmission, characteristics that are consistent with well executed cutting and finishing practices.
Clarity is graded as eye clean, evaluated at eye level, which indicates the absence of inclusions visible without magnification under normal viewing conditions. This clarity grade supports the stone s suitability for a range of jewelry applications where an unobstructed window into the gem s internal brilliance is desirable. Optical performance is enhanced by the mixed brilliant cut, which maximizes return of light while maintaining fire and scintillation across the crown facets. The medium color intensity complements the cut to produce an even color distribution, minimizing any zoning and allowing the stone to exhibit consistent hue from multiple viewing angles. Enhancement disclosure is clear and transparent, the prasiolite having undergone heat treatment, a stable, widely accepted enhancement that converts or stabilizes green tones in certain quartz material without introducing instability or complex care requirements.
The specimen originates from Brazil, and that geographic provenance contributes meaningfully to its value and appeal. Brazilian prasiolite is recognized in the trade for predictable trace element profiles and for producing material that responds well to heat treatment, yielding attractive yellowish green tones with good transparency. Provenance from well known Brazilian deposits also connotes established supply chains and experienced lapidary practices that support consistent quality in cut and polish. From a market perspective, documented origin acts as an element of provenance, assisting in establishing the gem s background for appraisal, resale, or bespoke commission work. For collectors and designers who weigh origin in their purchasing decisions, a Brazilian prasiolite from The Natural Gemstone Company offers the assurance of recognized geological source and the associated expectations for color, clarity, and material stability.
Practical specifications and stewardship notes are provided to aid in selection and integration into jewelry designs. The dimensions 11.86 x 11.65 x 7.99 mm and the weight of 5.84 carats make this round prasiolite suitable for center stone placements in rings, pendants, and custom pieces where a prominent yet wearable presence is desired. The mixed brilliant faceting and excellent polish favor closed settings that protect the girdle and pavilion, while still allowing sufficient light entry for optimum brilliance. Heat treated prasiolite is stable under normal wearing conditions, however care should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat and strong chemical cleaners. Routine cleaning with warm water, mild detergent, and a soft brush is recommended, and professional inspection is suggested prior to any setting work.
