Video taken under LED & fluorescent. First picture taken under LED & fluorescent. Second picture taken under incandescent light. Third picture taken under fluorescent office lamp light. Fourth picture taken outdoors under shaded natural sunlight in December. Note - the sun is very low in the sky in Iowa in December. During the summer months where the sun is higher & more direct, the stone would look much like the incandescent picture.

Truly an impressive purple/fuchsia Rhodolite Garnet, shows the classic colorshift these stones are known for. An electiric purple under LED light, going to a hot fuchsia in incandescent & strong sunlight, such as summertime sunlight or farther southern sunlight where it is more direct. Under fluorescent it remains mostly purple, but a hint of pink can be seen & the saturation of color declines a little but is still very desirable. All these shifts are in a bright medium tone, which many of these stones are known to get overly dark after 3 carats or more. This one does not.
Very nice cutting proportions. No window. Lots of brilliance & dispersion. Eye clean.

These Rhodolites are seen less & less on the market as the finds are drying up, especially in this size & medium tone. Priced to sale!
