This is a gem I've held onto for almost two years but just haven't set it yet. (I'm doing a "spring cleaning" and trying to be ruthless even though it's hard to offer some of these pieces that I love!!)
Gary Braun at Finewater cut this amethyst for me on request. This is a natural and untreated ammy. It's absolutely gorgeous, what I would consider top quality in both cut and color. Gary described it as having the desired "Siberian flashes". It is old stock, Namibian. Total weight is 4.70 carats. It has both blue flashes and red flashes, depending on the lighting conditions. It is a darker and very richly colored purple. There is one small area of color zoning which is usually not noticeable, but can be seen when turning it at certain angles - this isn't something that bothered me but I mention anything I see. Never previously set, and handled carefully.
Pics show various lighting conditions and first one is Gary's. Last pic shows it with another gem.
Shipping included in price, within US only. (Sorry but I only ship within the US!). Pymt via paypal only, please. This will ship insured via USPS.
Please ask all questions before deciding to buy; I am selling from my collection, and as such do not typically offer returns. I answer questions quickly, and will do my best to make sure you have all info before buying. I'm an active PS member and ebay seller under the ID katharath; you can check out my feedback if you like, I've sold for many years on ebay and more recently, over here :)
