2.57 inches (65.3 millimeters) in diameter, 426 grams. This is the exact piece pictured.

Untreated. Hand-cut and hand-polished, with no dye, coating, or filler.

Does it come with a stand?

What does a crystal grade (A, AA, or AAA) actually mean?

Crystal grades reflect visual quality within a single batch. Grade A is standard quality with typical inclusions. Grade AA shows stronger color saturation, cleaner surface, and tighter sizing. Grade AAA represents the top 10 to 15 percent of any batch: exceptional clarity, consistent color, and minimal surface variation. At Beyond Bohemian, grades are assessed by Paul Oliver at point of purchase.

Will I receive the exact piece shown, or one chosen from your stock?

For bulk listings sold by weight or piece count, you receive pieces from the same batch shown in the photos. Each piece is hand-selected at the time of packing. For unique specimens listed individually, you receive the exact piece photographed. The listing will specify which applies.

How do I know this crystal is ethically sourced?

We work with small-scale operations and family-run suppliers wherever we can verify fair compensation. You can ask about any specific piece and we will tell you what we know and what we do not.

Emerald is the green variety of beryl, coloured by chromium or vanadium. Sphere-grade material is opaque to translucent rather than the clear facet rough that reaches the jewellery trade, and it carries the host matrix through it, so the green arrives in bands and pockets rather than evenly.

This sphere was cut from emerald-bearing rock out of Midlands Province, Zimbabwe.

Emerald is worked with around the heart, generally for the settled kind of affection rather than the urgent kind, and for a steady relationship with abundance. It is traditionally linked to the heart chakra. If that resonates, keep it where you make decisions. Trust what is useful.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
