2.18 Ct. Cabochon Turquoise from Persia(Iran)

This is a rare opportunity to own one truly exceptional turquoise, offered exclusively by The Natural Gemstone Company, a gem of nature that speaks to connoisseurs and collectors who demand authenticity and distinction. This specimen is an opaque, oval shaped blue turquoise weighing 2.18 carats, with precise dimensions of 9.13 x 7.21 x 4.71 mm. It has been shaped into a classic cabochon, the form that best reveals the depth and velvety surface of turquoise, and it displays an intense color intensity that immediately draws the eye. The polish is excellent, producing a mirror like dome that reflects light evenly across the surface and enhances the stone s natural luster. Importantly, this turquoise is untreated, no enhancement, preserving the original character and mineral integrity from its place of origin, Persia, Iran. Stones of this pedigree and purity do not come to market often, and when they do, they are claimed quickly by those who understand both beauty and provenance.

Persian turquoise carries a history and reputation unmatched in the world of colored stones, and this piece embodies that legacy in a compact and wearable size. Renowned for its pure robin s egg blue to sky blue tones, Persian material has been treasured across civilizations, and this cabochon reflects that storied past while remaining wholly contemporary for today s jewelry. The intense color intensity sets it apart from more common greenish or matrix ridden examples, making it a standout choice for a solitaire ring, an elegant pendant, or as the centerpiece of a bespoke commission. At 2.18 carats, the balance between presence and practicality is ideal, large enough to command attention, yet refined enough to be incorporated into a range of metal and design choices. The oval shape presents a flattering silhouette for both masculine and feminine settings, and the depth of 4.71 mm provides substance for secure bezel work or prong mounting, ensuring longevity as well as beauty.

In our role as curators and artisans, The Natural Gemstone Company places a premium on stones that tell a story, and this turquoise is a narrative of geological patience and human reverence. The cabochon cut here has been executed with an eye for symmetry and proportion, the dome perfectly rounded to maximize color saturation while avoiding thin spots that could compromise durability. The excellent polish not only enhances visual appeal, it also protects the surface and makes the gem comfortable against the skin. For customers seeking exclusivity, this cabochon offers versatility for bespoke creation, from minimalist contemporary bands to Victorian inspired settings that celebrate the stone s historic lineage. We encourage personal commissions, where the gem can be paired with warm yellow gold to intensify the blue, with cool white metals for a modern contrast, or with accent diamonds and colored sapphires for a truly unique statement piece.
