Dear Friends,
I hope this message finds you well and that both your personal and professional endeavors are thriving.

Could you kindly confirm whether this gemstone is a Chrysoberyl? Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could provide the cost. The gemstone weighs 218 carats and the dimension is 15.6x37.2x93.5 mm. Please check the pictures of it in PDF format file.

Looking forward to your response.

Best regards,
George

We will not be able to help you without more information as discussed here:
https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/viewtopic.php?t=1936

That said, if the rock has been faceted, we a very unlikely to help you because this forum only deals with natural mineral specimens in their natural state. There are many forums on the internet that discuss cut stones - this is not one of them.

Again, you probably can get at least a start on the info you are looking for by going to a local knowledgeable jeweler.

Good Luck.
