Yellow-Green Chrysoberyl Ring with Tapered Oculus Band

A chrysoberyl ring with a tapered oculus band. This gemstone is not well-known, but has a beautiful yellow-ish green color. With a hardness of 8.5, it is not quite as tough as a diamond, sapphire, or ruby, but is not far behind, and far exceeds the hardness of an emerald (7) or peridot (6.5-7), which are the gemstones closest to the natural chrysoberyl color. This hardness, along with its versatile color, subtle beauty, and design, makes this piece a beautiful and practical ring to wear every day, as a cocktail ring at any time of day, or even as an engagement ring for a unique bride who wants to sparkle in modern style with a natural twist.
