Comments:
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a chrome kornerupine with THIS level of saturation but WITHOUT inclusions. This depth of color is unheard of in this clarity. I say that having gone through tens of thousands of individual pieces tracking down the best gem rough I could find, over the years. I have seen every combination of color and inclusions out there, and this piece is one in a billion.
It may be on the small side, but that didn't stop me from creating custom faceting diagram, and carefully applying it. I couldn't be happier with the result. It's truly dazzling.
Intensely trichroic! It's dying to be in someone's collection, or high end piece of jewelry.
