5.76 Ct. Rose Quartz from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One glance at this transparent 5.76 carat pink rose quartz and you will see why it stands apart from most rose quartz on the market, this gem arrives from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for producing some of the purest and most elegantly hued quartz varieties, this oval shape stone measures 13.51 x 10.52 x 7.36 mm, and it has been fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize sparkle and light return, the clarity grade is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, the color sits in a gentle light pink intensity that reads as refined and wearable rather than overstated, the polish is excellent, and most importantly this gem has no enhancement, that combination of natural transparency and lack of treatment makes this specimen a rarer and more desirable alternative to the common cloudy rose quartz pieces that flood the market, at The Natural Gemstone Company we focus on sourcing pieces that offer genuine gem quality, and this stone delivers clarity and presence that most rose quartz simply cannot match.

The journey of this rose quartz begins in the mineral rich hills of Ceylon Sri Lanka, where artisanal miners, working with respect for the land and local communities, extract pockets of quartz that form under stable geological conditions, unlike mass produced material from lower grade deposits, the rough that yielded this gem was selected for its internal uniformity and potential for transparency, after extraction the rough passed through careful hand sorting and preforming stages, experts at The Natural Gemstone Company examined cut angles and proportions to determine the ideal orientation for a mixed brilliant cut, the mixed brilliant approach blends crown facets that promote scintillation with a pavilion design that preserves weight and creates depth, this balance is what gives the stone life in both direct and diffuse light, the cutter spent hours refining facet junctions and symmetry to achieve the excellent polish you now see, every facet was inspected for cleanliness and optical performance, the result is a gem that translates its natural story into wearable reflection and soft fire.

When comparing this transparent Ceylon rose quartz to other choices available to discerning buyers, several advantages emerge, first many rose quartz specimens on the market are treated to deepen color or to improve clarity, those enhancements can be acceptable for certain purposes, but they also reduce long term value and alter how the stone ages, by contrast this gem is untreated, and its beauty is entirely natural, second a large transparent piece in the 5 to 6 carat range is uncommon for rose quartz, many stones of similar weight are heavily included or cloudy, this stone is eye clean, which means it will perform beautifully in open settings, third the mixed brilliant cut is a step above the usual cabochon or simple step cut often used for rose quartz, the mixed brilliant cut delivers a livelier presence that rivals more costly pink gemstones while still offering strong value for money, and finally when compared to alternatives like pink sapphire or morganite, this rose quartz offers a unique softness and warmth in tone, it sits comfortably between pastel elegance and everyday versatility, buyers who want a natural, untreated, and well cut pink gem will find that this Ceylon specimen outperforms many commercial options in both beauty and honest value.

For the jeweler and the collector this rose quartz is a versatile and intelligent choice, its oval proportions make it ideal for classic ring settings that emphasize the stone face up, it will also translate well into pendant and statement earrings, the light color intensity allows for pairing with both cool and warm metals, and the eye clean clarity means the gem will not require protective halo settings unless desired for design reasons, at The Natural Gemstone Company we provide detailed images and measurements to help you visualize the stone in your intended design, we also advise on setting considerations to protect the gem while showcasing its mixed brilliant cut, compared with mass market rose quartz pieces this stone represents a meaningful upgrade in craftsmanship, provenance, and honesty, for those who want a pink gemstone with natural purity, responsible sourcing, and refined cut work, this 5.76 carat transparent Ceylon rose quartz embodies all of those qualities, allow this gem to be the centerpiece of a design that values authenticity, and know that your purchase is supported by our expertise and commitment to high quality gemstones.
