This is a stone I've had in my personal collection for a while but it's time to find a home. The deepest, best-saturated Teal Apatite I've ever seen, and I've seen many. The cutting is fantastic-was a recut of a poorly cut Asscher done by John Miller. The only negative is it has common silt inclusions which have a golden Schiller-type of effect which is seen at angle. It adds beauty and gives this beautiful stone a unique feature. If you hate inclusions though this stone isn't for you. From normal view and dead on you can't see them, as in the picture from far away.
