A remarkable natural chrysoberyl from Sri Lanka, weighing 5.52 carats and certified by Bellerophon Gemological Laboratory. This cushion-cut stone radiates a vivid greenish yellow — electric, saturated, and brilliantly alive — a colour of extraordinary intensity that few gemstones can rival.
Chrysoberyl is one of the hardest and most durable gemstones in existence, ranking 8.5 on the Mohs scale, surpassed only by corundum and diamond. Completely unheated and unenhanced, this stone’s vivid colour is entirely natural. At 5.52 carats, this is a truly exceptional specimen — fine chrysoberyl of this size and colour saturation is rare on the market.
