Beryl 0.84 ct – Light Yellow, Square Cut

Beryl is a silicate mineral group known for its clarity, structural stability, and refined crystal formation. In gem-quality material, beryl is appreciated for its transparent appearance and understated elegance, which allows precise cutting and balanced proportions to be fully appreciated.
Chemically composed of beryllium aluminum silicate (Be₃Al₂Si₆O₁₈), beryl crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system and belongs to the silicate mineral group. In transparent gem-quality specimens, it typically displays a vitreous luster with high clarity.
The refractive index of beryl generally ranges from approximately 1.57 to 1.60, resulting in a subtle, even brilliance rather than strong dispersion. Beryl is found in several regions worldwide, with notable sources including Brazil, Madagascar, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and parts of Africa, depending on the specific variety and color.

With a hardness of 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, beryl offers good durability suitable for everyday jewelry when properly set and worn with standard care. Its resistance to scratching and stable crystal structure contribute to reliable performance across a wide range of jewelry designs.
Beryl performs well in rings, pendants, earrings, and bracelets, particularly in settings that protect the stone from sharp impact. Its durability, clarity, and neutral visual character make it a versatile choice for both everyday jewelry and elegant, design-focused pieces.

Beryl is commonly found in nature without the need for enhancement. Depending on the variety, treatments such as heat treatment may be applied to modify or enhance color, practices that are widely accepted within the gem trade when properly disclosed.
Any treatments or enhancements are always clearly stated for each individual gemstone. Every stone is professionally examined, and transparent disclosure is regarded as a fundamental part of responsible gemological practice, allowing clients to make informed and confident decisions.
