Chrysoberyl ranks 8.5 on the Mohs scale — harder than most gem species outside the corundum family — and occurs in golden-yellow to yellow-green tones; this stone is graded green-yellow. At 3.64 carats, this is a substantial collector-grade piece; well-cut chrysoberyl above 3 carats is genuinely uncommon in the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 2px solid #5b2c6f; border-radius: 10px; padding: 20px 24px; margin: 28px 0; background-color: #f9f5fc;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 12px; color: #4a235a;\"\u003eExpert Opinion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 600; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/crescentgems.com\/pages\/ahmed-shareek-about-the-owner\" style=\"color: #4a235a; text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAhmed Shareek\u003c\/a\u003e's Assessment\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\"A 3.64 ct chrysoberyl is genuinely large for the species — most of what comes through our hands is well under a carat, and clean, well-cut stones above 3 carats simply don't turn up often.

At 3.64 carats, this stone is well above typical market size — well-cut chrysoberyl above 3 carats is genuinely uncommon, since large clean rough is more often cut into cat's-eye cabochons than faceted stones of this size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrysoberyl is naturally almost always untreated — unlike sapphire, where the majority of commercial material is heat treated.
