This is a very unique collector’s gem. Chrysoberyl is a beautiful durable gemstone that is suitable for almost any jewelry application. Nearly as hard as sapphire, it wears well as a ring or pendant stone. This gem exhibits a highlighter greenish-yellow color that almost seems to glow! A very slight edge veil remains in the stone’s pavilion, but is completely hidden face-up. Minor silk throughout the stone gives it very slightly velvety appearance but does not detract at all. This is a “barion” oval design.
Note: The color of this stone was exceptionally difficult to capture accurately in photos–it is a nice bright lemony yellow with a touch of green.
Price: $ 210.00 USD (As seen on Rough to Refined Gemstones)
