One transparent greenish blue quartz weighing 13.59 carat presents a refined oval silhouette with dimensions of 18.31 by 13.47 by 8.76 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, and an excellent polish, the clarity is described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the color intensity is light, the stone has been heat treated and originates from Brazil, this gem is offered by The Natural Gemstone Company. The mixed brilliant cut balances broad facets on the pavilion with smaller crown facets, this combination enhances scintillation while preserving an open face that allows the stone s subtle greenish blue hue to read clearly. The transparency and excellent polish optimize light return, creating crisp facet reflections and a lively surface appearance even with the stone s light color intensity.
The stone s greenish blue tone is versatile and will stand out in a variety of jewelry settings, set in white metals the cooler aspects of the color become more apparent and the gem reads as a pure aquamarine like blue, set in yellow gold the green undertones are gently warmed producing an appealing contrast, set in rose gold the stone retains its clarity while the surrounding metal imparts a soft, modern juxtaposition. In solitaire presentations the oval proportions and generous table create a focal point that communicates size without overwhelming a design, in halo or three stone settings the mixed brilliant cut interacts with accent stones to amplify sparkle and perceived depth, the light color intensity ensures the gem remains distinct and noticeable against both neutral and colored mounting materials.
From a practical perspective quartz offers reliable surface durability for daily wear with a Mohs hardness around 7, the excellent polish and careful cutting further reduce the appearance of wear, heat treatment is a stable and common enhancement for this material, the very slightly included clarity means inclusions are minimal and do not interfere with the gem s brilliance when set. For designers and clients seeking a refined, sizable centerpiece with a fresh, greenish blue presence, this 13.59 carat oval from Brazil combines pleasing proportions, dependable performance, and a graceful color that will command attention in contemporary and classic jewelry alike.
