Pair of Oval Peridot Cabochons

This item consists of two loose, oval-shaped cabochon gemstones, identified by their characteristic olive-green hue as peridot. Each stone features a smooth, domed convex top and a flat base, a cut designed to emphasize the richness of color and the stone's inner glow rather than light refraction through facets. The gemstones exhibit a vibrant, yellowish-green saturation typical of high-quality magnesium-rich silicate minerals. In terms of size, they appear to be approximately 6-8mm in length, though an exact measurement would require a caliper. The translucency is high, with a vitreous luster that reflects light sharply off the polished surfaces, as seen in the white highlights. While the image resolution is limited, the stones appear to have 'eye-clean' clarity with no immediately visible Lily Pad inclusions characteristic of this gem variety. There are no obvious signs of surface chipping, abrasions, or scratches along the girdles, suggesting they are in excellent, unwrought condition. These stones are likely contemporary in age, intended for use in custom jewelry settings such as stud earrings or as part of a multi-stone ring design. The symmetry of the polish and the matching color profile indicate a well-calibrated pair of commercial-to-fine gemstone quality.
