Description

This is a very pure yellow Chrysoberyl cut in the US. It it the purest yellow I've ever seen in Chrysoberyl, and never shows brown or golden, even in indoor lighting. It has the slightest touch of green outdoors. It will glow in even very low indoor lighting. The clarity of the crystal is magnificent.

It was precision cut in the US in a short oval brilliant style. It has great sparkle thanks to the precision cutting. It never closes up in any lighting.
However, it definitely performs best in diffuse lighting, while in intense, single-source direct light it gets somewhat more inconsistent light return. It faces like a 2.5 carat stone as well thanks to some clever cutting, so that's a bonus.

It's a fabulous stone for someone who likes purer yellows and precision cutting. I could use the money for some other purchases and I'm trying to downsize. If it doesn't sell, I'll probably find an inexpensive ring and give it to someone as a gift, because it's too nice not to be featured in someone's jewelry.
