7.26 Ct. Cabochon Rose Quartz from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The story of rose quartz is a story of gentle light and enduring affection, a tale that winds from ancient civilizations to the hands of modern artisans, and this exquisite cabochon brings that lineage into the present with quiet authority. For millennia rose quartz has been cherished not only for its tender pink hue, but for the symbolic and cultural meanings that have gathered around it, from classical amulets of love to Eastern healing traditions. This particular stone, sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, carries that heritage within its translucent body, a small globe of color that seems to hold soft sunrise within. The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present this 7.26 carat round shape pink rose quartz as more than a material, it is a conversation across time, an heirloom in embryo that invites wearers to join a long tradition of beauty and meaning. Its cabochon cut emphasizes a timeless aesthetic rather than fleeting fashion, and its very presence suggests jewelry that will be treasured and passed on, rather than discarded.

At the heart of this offering are the precise details that matter to collectors and designers alike, a meticulous record of character and quality. The gem weighs 7.26 carats, and measures 11.88 x 11.93 x 7.06 mm, an ideal scale for a statement ring, a pendant or a central element in a brooch. The cut is cabochon, its surface curved and smooth, and the polish is excellent, producing a serene sheen that catches the eye without shouting. Clarity is graded eye clean as evaluated at eye level, so the visual experience is one of clear, even translucency, with the stone offering a soft internal glow. Color intensity is light, a delicate pink that evokes petals and dawn light, a tone that pairs harmoniously with rose gold, yellow gold, and the quiet luxury of platinum. Enhancement is none, this gem is natural and untreated, and the provenance is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region known for producing stones with refined aesthetic qualities. As an additional note for those who collect complementary stones, the opal type is White Opal, a designation you may wish to consider when planning matched sets or accents.

The physical beauty of this rose quartz is matched by the versatility of its design potential, and the cabochon form invites traditional mounting techniques that celebrate the stone in an enduring way. A bezel setting highlights the round silhouette and protects the edges, while a low domed mount allows the stone to be the principal storyteller in rings, pendants and cufflinks. Designers who favor classical motifs will find this gem pairs beautifully with engraved metal work, filigree, and settings that reference antique eras, because the stone itself speaks an antique language. For those assembling a collection for future generations, the combination of a light, even pink together with eye clean clarity and no enhancements means the gem will retain both aesthetic and market integrity over time. Care for such a piece is straightforward, gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft cloth will preserve its surface, avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals, and store it separately from harder stones to prevent abrasion. The result is a jewel that can be worn daily, yet still be appropriate for quiet, ceremonial moments.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we believe that provenance, honesty and narrative are as important as the gem itself, and this rose quartz embodies those principles. Each stone we present is carefully evaluated and described, and this cabochon comes to you with full disclosure of origin, measurements, cut, clarity, color intensity, polish, and the fact that there has been no enhancement. We are available to advise on setting options, matching stones such as White Opal for multi stone compositions, and to assist with custom commissions that honor the classic spirit of this gem. If you seek a piece that offers quiet romance, historical resonance, and a timeless form that will endure through generations, this Ceylon rose quartz is an ideal candidate.
