Stunning 23g Supat Valley Peridot Crystal. Elevate your fine mineral collection with this striking 23-gram Supat Valley Peridot Crystal. Mined from the legendary, high-altitude pegmatites of the Manshera District in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), Pakistan, this raw gemstone is a testament to the region’s world-class mineral wealth. Measuring 3.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 cm, it features a beautifully robust, natural crystalline structure, making it a highly desirable piece for both discerning collectors and passionate gem enthusiasts.
Exceptional Color and Raw Clarity This authentic Supat Valley Peridot Crystal showcases the intensely saturated, neon-green hues that make Pakistani peridot so universally sought after. The specimen features a brilliant, glassy luster and outstanding internal transparency, allowing light to pass through easily and illuminate its natural internal characteristics and fracture lines. Its raw, untreated condition preserves the exact geometric faces and striations formed deep within the earth millions of years ago, offering a completely authentic piece of geological history.
Sourced from the Rugged Terrain of Manshera, acquiring gem-grade olivine (peridot) from the Supat Valley is notoriously difficult. The extreme elevations, harsh weather conditions, and labor-intensive seasonal mining make intact, high-quality specimens of this size incredibly prized. The survival of this 23g crystal, with its vivid coloration and excellent light refraction, makes it a premium addition to any high-end display.
Care and Display Guidelines: To best showcase the magnificent green glow of this specimen, we recommend displaying it under dedicated, cool-toned cabinet lighting. With a Mohs hardness of 6.5 to 7, peridot is relatively durable, but as a raw crystal, it should be kept safely apart from harder minerals like quartz or topaz to ensure its natural faces remain free of scratches and abrasions.
