Product Description
This is a single faceted natural peridot stone. The weight is 5.5 carats. It is sourced from Supat, Kohistan, Pakistan — a well-documented peridot-producing locality known for producing stones with strong apple-green saturation. The stone has been cut in an emerald cut / rectangular step cut with clipped corners, also described as a radiant outline, with broad parallel step facets and a flat table.
Clarity is graded VVS (Very Very Slightly Included), indicating excellent transparency with minimal internal characteristics visible under 10× magnification. The color is apple green — the characteristic yellow-green hue of peridot driven by its iron content. The stone carries no treatments; it is 100% natural and earth-mined.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Pakistani peridot good quality compared to other origins?
Pakistan — particularly the Kohistan and Supat regions — is one of the world's primary peridot sources and is popular for producing stones with strong apple-green color and good clarity.
Q: What is the difference between an emerald cut and a radiant cut peridot?
An emerald cut has open step facets and clipped corners with a flat table, emphasizing color and clarity. A radiant cut adds more facets for additional brilliance; this stone combines both — a rectangular step-cut body with a radiant-style outline and clipped corners.
Q: Does peridot require any special care or maintenance?
Peridot has a Mohs hardness of 6.5–7 and is sensitive to acids and rapid temperature changes. It should be cleaned with mild soap and warm water, stored separately to avoid scratching, and kept away from ultrasonic cleaners.
