About Green Sinhalite Gemstones

Green Sinhalite is a magnesium aluminum borate mineral and is closely related to yellow sinhalite and chrysoberyl. Its green coloration is naturally occurring and often very subtle, ranging from pale green to greenish-yellow.

With a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, green sinhalite is durable enough for most jewelry applications when set securely. The finest and rarest specimens originate from Sri Lanka, with limited deposits found elsewhere. Green sinhalite is typically untreated, increasing its desirability and value.

Green sinhalite is associated with balance, renewal, and clarity, making it an excellent choice for refined and meaningful jewelry designs.
